Oh nice, they are out of City of Industry which is 30 mins away from me. Might need to take a drive down there soon.

The fitment is on point. We are letting it sit out in the sun to cure and get the toxins out before painting it. Shop said they've seen Polyurethane warp if you just paint it before letting it cure in the sun. Im not the pro so I went with it

Didn't know that either so I'll keep that in mind too. Did they say how much they would of charged you if they painted it themselves?

The guy I was chatting with on Facebook said he thought it was in the $125 range. If so $250 shipped isnt bad with paint. Im just not sure what paint they use. My shop is getting the paint from Honda.

Where are you taking the lip to get it painted? How much do they charge?

What do you guys think?

Tinted or keep it clear??

Im taking it to I Ride Auto Spa in Arlington. $350 painted and installed. Did my wing for $300 but said the polyurethane takes more work to prep properly for paint. He was still cheaper than other spots

Clear or Red tint. I've never been a fan of smoked taillights.

Same for me. I've got the red overlays on my tails and I like them, but the smoked ones just look off.

I like the smokey look, which film did you use? Link?

If you're going to smoke them, do the whole taillight. I don't see the point in doing just the one area. If you had a black car, it could work.

I have the red overlay which I think is clean. On the front end, I ordered smoked overlays for the headlights. Will post pics when I install them which might be this weekend.
