Default Paint Questions Please Help


Alright...At the moment im sitting on an 02 V6 looking so sell it for my loan payoff and upgrade to a cobra or mach 1. I would like an 03 cobra but the price on those are way out so i want to just replace the front / rear bumpers and hood plus a tonneau cover. All that would have to be painted is it cheaper to paint the whole car or just the peices. If so where should i look to have it painted dealerships...shops...or wat?

It would be cheaper to paint just the parts of course but you may run into a color match problem. The bumpers matching sould be no problem but the hood is another story. It depends on the color of your car also as far as paint match goes. Painting a hood then installing it on the car is where the color match comes into play. Does if match the fenders? The darker the color the easier the match will be to get. Some colors you will have to blend into the fenders to get the complete match look. Find a shop with a good line of paint products such as Diamont or Sikkens. They should also have a downdraft spray booth.
