Tomorrow I'm going to go over to my local body shop to get a quote on having my spoiler holes filled and repainted, the panel in between my taillights blacked out and the lower part of the bumper painted black. What is a ball park estimate for some or all of these things to be done?
I'd just like to go over there with a reasonably good idea so I don't get screwed.

I would say $300... That may be on the cheap side...

I wouldnt spend any over 425 and if under 225 probably not good quality

Filling holes usually bumps up that price...

They may have to blend your decklid as well which may cost money... Idk. Try to stay below 400 if possible... Or ask the painter if he can do it on the side and you'll slip him 200 + supplies...

When I was looking to have my decklid painted - and I was getting prices for just paint and clear because I was going to do the body work and priming myself, I was looking at 170-200 prices. That was for only the decklid and no body work. Because you are going for 2 colors, body work, and more than one panel you could easily be getting quotes over 400. Your best bet may be to find someone who is willing to do it on the side for cash as hp said. Good luck, it'll look nice.

Thanks for the input guys. Now that I think of it should I just keep the wing on and have it painted black as well? That way there is no body work to be done and painting will only be one color.

That could help you lower your cost, but its gotta come down to what you really want. Chances are you will still be seeing numbers in the 300's because they will sand off all the clear off you car - even where its not painted - so that you get a smooth final product. If they don't do this, you will be able to feel the paint line where the black and other color meet. So they complete clear is the right way to do it, but it depends on budget and body shop.

i work at a dealership that has a body shop, and they painted the section between my tails black for me for $75. i didn't get the rest of the stuff done that you are, though

Just keep the spoiler off if thats what you want. If they are going to fill those holes, remove your FORD emblem as well for a nice clean look... Just go for some quotes and decide what you think is best.

Give them to options for pricing:
1) Paint in between the tails the spoiler and the rear valence
2) Shaved badge with spoiler holes filled. Black in between tails and rear valence

And i would get my tails sprayed if i were you...
