Painted rockers and rear is NICE... Looks great..... My car is black, would you paint dull black glossy black to match car?

What did it cost to paint the three items? I plan on a chin painted black, so the front is covered.

I would paint same as the car...that's what I did on the Ingot. However, that's me...you may want a contrast, but I didn't. What I really like about the whole thing is that all the dimpling is gone. It's now smooth just like the bumper covers, etc.

I also had the CS lower fascia painted at the same time so my entire car matches. I plan on some other things, but haven't quite decided yet.

As for cost I can't really give a decent estimate since I'm stationed in Germany. I had several German body/paint shops give me an estimate before I decided. I also made sure I got a good shop to do the work and insited on a warranty for their work. I would do the same back in the U.S. if I were home. Anyway, get several estimates from quality shops and see what they say. Everything...and I mean everything...is much more expensive here in Germany comparatively. Especially since the U.S. dollar has been crap against the Euro.

This particular shop charged me 900 Euro for the enire car and a few pieces on my wife's car as well. Also, since I work for the U.S. government over here, I don't have to pay German tax (19%) on purchases like these. So, if I were to guess, you should be able to get it done in the U.S. for ~$800-$1000. That's a complete guess on my part, but I bet I'm pretty close.

matte vinyl like the boss

YerBuddy

Thanks! Did you do it yourself or have a shop do it? I know...dumb questions, but I'm considering doing this. Just need some pointers.

first try was with the actual ford part ~$35 and it was such a precise cut piece i ended up ruining it trying to line it up perfect. so i bought another pre cut one from a vinyl shop on ebay and it was 3m material so it was thicker and more workable. I also had the faux gas cap off to switch to the pony one which helped.

now the 13's come with the glossy blackout panel
