Ask the person that's painting it...they'd have a few hours in it. Depends on what they charge per hour.

here . His rear is molded but the front is not, it looks pretty good, at least on the dark color. I'm afraid it would be alot more obvious on a light color.
Actually if your car is black...I wouldn't worry too much about molding it. But since it is a polyuethane piece, make sure the person attaching it puts it on nice & straight. I believe it's pretty flexible & could possibly go on kinda wavy on the top edge, making it pretty ugly. There was someone w/ a white mystique quite a while back that stuck his on & it didn't look too good.
