Painting mirrors?

MustangMatt96GT · November 6th, 2007, 11:11 PM

How much would it cost to get my mirrors painted to match my body color?

TurboLX · November 6th, 2007, 11:12 PM

$50-100

Where would i get it done at? I think it would really pull out the color in my car. Also how much to get my spoiler holes filled?

Any paint shop really

$5 if you go to walmart

as for filling holes in the trunk

that can get expensive, most places wont do it, its a win lose situation

if they fill it with bondo, chances are a few months later they will pop open from anything and fucks it all up

or they will weld plates under neath the holes and then fill them

like i said, your gonna dole out some coin for that

yeah my buddy got a few estimates for his spoiler delete and he decided just to plug the holes, doesnt look too bad..

and as for the mirror painting , there was a good writeup somewhere i saw on how to do it yourself , seemed pretty easy and cheap, ill look around and see if i can find it..

i painted my mirrors when i did my whole car.. all it will take is some light sanding & priming. should only cost you around 100 bucks at the MOST....now the filling in on the trunk is going to be expensive.. you are looking at around 400 to do bodywork & paint. if i was you, i would go to the junk yards & try to find a spoiler-less trunk lid off a V-6 & then paint to match.. it will be a hell of cheaper that way... find a good local body shop to do the paint work..
