i recommend foster's for their quality work but being that it's a chin spoiler i will assume it's relatively small and since it's low to the ground it has a high probability of being curbed so i don't think a high quality paint job would be necessary. i would call every bodyshop in the phone book and ask if they have any left over paint from your vehicle's paint code. chances are you'll find a shop that does and they'll spray it pretty cheap.

^ He did not say chin spoiler. He said lip spoiler, which I assumed would go on trunk or top of a hatch. I could be wrong though

i had an experience with fosters off westgate that was unpleasant to say the least. I would not take a mailbox there to be painted because they would probably install the door on upside down, the flag backwards, mismatch the paint, and then use oversized sheet metals screws in place of the original fasteners they lost. What a bunch of lazy crooks.

Yes it's a lip spoiler for the trunk.

Colors on Parade does excellent work and if you are a THSCC member you get a discount. I had a parking lot sideswipe and run on my car and it looks like my car is brand new now. They guys spends most of his time restoring old classics so he knows what his is doing. They are a little far though out in Wendell about thirty minutes away but well worth it.

I can throw in a +1 for Coates' - they sprayed some parts on my truck about two years ago, and the finish was perfect.

These guys have EXTENSIVE experience with aftermarket bodykits and painting... http://www.raceclubbodyshop.com/

They used to have a shop in Raleigh, but they've moved far away since then. If you don't mind the drive, they are good at what they do.

^i'll have to vouch for 'em. Robert painted my last truck and it was a decent paintjob especially for the price.
