Painting an Air Dam in Chicago

[GRANDPRIXFOOL01]

I am getting an SD air dam for my b-day and I am wondering how much people are charging to get this painted. I definitely want to keep the factory silver in the middle and body match the rest. Does anyone know the paint code for the silver color? If anyone can recommend a shop near chicago from personal expierence or if anyone has a gun of there own, that would work too.
Thanks in advance.

prep it yourself and take it to maaco. be like $50 bucks.


Before anyone starts raggin on maaco, they do **** prep, if you prep it yourself right then the final will be good, wet sand it buff it and bolt it on.

That's actually true, be sure to tell them though.

I was gonna prep it myself. It should be a problem to two tone it for Maaco right?

I know a guy that has done at Maaco and his came out pretty good.

It shouldnt be a problem, I know quite a few maaco's in the nw burbs have car gurus working there, but again you get what you pay for, I had to have a dent removed from a 1/4 panel on my 78 mino, not a bad one either, no frame damage or anything but it was a 65 mph rear end accident, I was dead stopped and the civic slammed into me, anyways they did the work in 3 days and it matched exactly to the paint I had custom mixed and body lines were straight, I paid 850 bucks.

There is a certain maaco in itasca that has a custom rod builder working there or did work there, his work can be seen here EuroTeknik Forum - Chicago's Premier European Car Community - BMW, Audi, VW, Porsche - View Single Post - Voodoo Kings Saturday Night Cruise - Pics
