I'd suggest paint it at the same time as the car, but off of the car, then install it. That way you won't have the chance of the paint shades being off at all.

right, but install it then remove it, make sure it fits perfect otherwise let the body shop have their way with it so it does, before paint is ever put in the gun

You should have the shop mold the front & rear air dams to the bumpers...it'll look alot smoother & much better than just sticking them on after paint. That is, if it's w/in your budget.

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

See this thread... 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.
