Having a tough decision on deciding what to do in regards to painting my lowers; do it myself or have it professionally done. I have searched up some shops here in socal. Do you guys have any ideas on what I should do? Or any new shop recommendations or private guys that will do it? Not looking to fork out too much for this. Oh yeah my car is Brilliant Black. Thanks [up]

Bump for responses!
I have a silver avant that needs painted lowers. Spyker, if you find a place let me know and maybe we can get a deal out of a place for 2 cars.

talk to Nick at Autobahnexotics.com He can hook you up with a place in Huntington beach that apparently does an awesome job. I'm getting my new CF hood painted by them in the next week or two!

Found a place that will do it pretty cheap. Depending on if you uninstall them yourself or not.
Topanga Cyn / Devonshire in chatsworth.

Theres also a place off Canoga between Sherman Way/Saticoy that does pretty good work. Got my rear bumper totally redone and painted for $280 (small fender bender). Its called Hamricks, just a hole in the wall place-kinda ghetto though. They would proly do lowers for under $450...

My firend just opened a custom car audio and modification shop in the southbay. He can do all kinds of custom fiberglass work and is working on a drift car ATM.. he is also painting it. He does custom paint work and since he has just opened his shop (not even officially open yet) I am sure he would appreciate the chance to do the work for you guys and would likely be agreeable to a pkg deal to build his customer base... I'll check and have him get on here if I can.
