Default Painted blackout

has anyone just painted their trunk between the tail-lights to save some money? do you think it would be cheaper and look just as nice?

How do you figure it's going to save you money?

Yea, maybe..if you do it yourself with a can of spraypaint.

I'm getting mine painted soon. Doing flat black on the wing, hood stripe and between the taillights on the decklid. Got quoted 250 for everything.
