[NISMOT]

WoooooHooooooo go Stillen roof and deck wing Paint tomorrow or Friday



Im kinda doubting there adhesive ( Should I be worried ) ???????Hahahaha barely fits in the back hahah

I don't know if there is a DIY for this but i will do one just in case and for the rador detector hardwire DIY i have been kinda of tied up with good ole college lolIm working on it

[phobs]

As long as you properly prep the area the tape will go, it will be extremely difficult to remove especially if adhesion promoter is used.

[NISMOT]

OOooo I see so no liquid nail darn Jk

[RB4Life]

The adheasive that comes on it works fine. i thought the same thing with mine. But its fine. Congrats

[NISMOT]

One of the corners of my roof wing didn't stick too well, but that was probably due to the glass not being clean enough. The rest of it is fine though, and the deck wing is stuck like if it was bolted on.

wow macco want $300 to paint it

[Curtieson]

Paint in a can!!!

You can get color matched at some paint places...have to imagine a can would be $15 ballpark but no experience to speak on.

[nismogxs21]

well i got my roof lip, and i recently picked up the front fascia with the side skirts and i have someone who's gonna do the work on it... so i'll let u kno ina few days how much they charging... but to paint those two things shouldnt be that expensive... i can probably get this guy to do both for about 150$-200$ for you... i'll find out...

wow macco want $300 to paint it

The tape on there is great. I didn't use any adhesion promoter and my wing has been on solidly for the past 6 months or so.

[Rmuth25]

wow macco want $300 to paint it

To paint both or each? For both that's a little pricey but sounds about right. I had my wing painted at Maaco and it was like 125 bucks or so. It was 100 bucks for labor plus the 19 for the paint and then tax. With the urethane the prep work is important, so I don't recommend painting it yourself.

[Rmuth25]

Dont trust Macco especially with that price.

It all depends. The Maaco by me is awesome. Dirt cheap and they do great work. Its all about the people and their experience that work there that determines the quality of the work. The Maaco that I go to used to be an independent shop but then the owner bought into the franchise.

Just remember... you get what you pay for

[phobs]

If you plan on getting a body kit, I suggest you wait and paint everything at once. You'll save more money because the shop doesn't have to waste any materials painting only small stuff, plus if you paint all at once the paint will be the same.

[NISMOT]

D-roll your killing me thats where a toke it..........

[NISMOT]

Well it will be done next week on Weds.....So will keep yall informed.

Thanks for the input too.......+1,000,000 for Nico

I was charged around $500 for having my Stillen fascia color matched to the Super Black. *skip about 6months* I cut too close on a high curb over in Hollywood and scraped the paint off the bottom passenger side "corner" of the fascia and that stupid place didn't even prep the urethane.

I didn't think they did because the paint on the grill was bubbling (just a little) when I got the car back from the shop but didn't pay much attention to it. But now I feel like I should just get the whole thing repainted when I get my rims (not here for another month or so) done.

*sorry for long rant*moral, you don't always get what you pay for

[nismogxs21]

is it wednesday yet??? lol

i wanna see the job maaco did...

they painted my friends sentra over n it came out really good for the price she paid... 285$... STEAL!!!! (but she also complained and had them lower the price for lil mistakes) lol

i dun kno... i guess maaco is a hit or miss... i still wouldnt take my stuff to them... sorry to say...

[JDRosenberg07]

yeah i had a bad experience with the macco over on E 50. I took my old car their when i got in an accident, they did the hood and front grille. there were swirls all over the hood and drips and the end of it!! I paid over $500 for that too

D-roll your killing me thats where a toke it..........
