Need quick advice. I want a body shop to paint my chrome oval and rear strip black. A shop around here quoted me around $250 for both. eek Was I right to drop my mouth to the floor when I heard that??? I remember someone got just their oval painted a while back for like 80 bucks.

Am I missing something here or am I being screwed?

Thanks for any info...

i'd pay $100 for both at the most, thats probably still high considering I paid 75 to get my back reflector painted unless theres more to the chrome striping.

I had my front chrome, back chrome and SVT emblem all done for $10.00

It's nice to have friends that will only charge you for the paint.
