hm I kind of like the unpainted loweres on my santorin. Did you paint it yourself or was it done at a shop?

i had a shop do it. my buddy owed me money and he works at a bodyshop. so we squared up with this job....

i didn't mind the unpainted lowers on my car. cause its not as noticable as, say on a white car. But i think it looks cleaner painted.

that looks awesome, i've been thinking about getting mine done but i'm worried that they won't be able to get the paint to match perfectly.

in that second picture it almost looks purpley but i bet thats just the reflection. definately looks nice. didnt you use to have that one front valence though?

when i painted my lowers, i could not get the paint to match 100%. When i repainted my bumpers the match was fine. They came out a touch too much purple for some reason on the lowers. I just live with it. It looks awesome though

in person it looks like an almost perfect match, but maybe in the pictures it shows up.I'm definitely happy with the results though either way

thanx..

hey how much would the hood have cost to get repainted? im looking into that as i have a rock chip problem myself.

depends on the shop really....

i would say somewhere around 150-200 for only the hood.

Nicely done. Very clean!

[Nebone]

I will do the same.

i disagree, i think our cars look cleaner with the painted lowers. especially light colored cars.
