Re: Mike's_Taffeta 2000 dx 5spd

you know...you could get the paint from a Sherwin Williams auto paint store and paint them yourself, and I swear it'll probably only cost like $30 of paint and probably $9.99 for a can of gloss.

the dealership will have a field day with price quoting you for already painted parts like that.

My girlfriends cousin owns a body shop so I get his discount from the dealer. I priced the handles and gaurds at roughly 24 a piece, not bad considering I don't want to worry about the paint fading.

oh ok that's not bad if you have a hook up then.

like really, you wouldn't want to go through the trouble of having to paint all those parts if you can help it anyway :lawl:

it would be a pain in the ***

They're most definitely not in the same class. I love that a4 and its a luxury sedan not an economy sedan like the accord. It wasn't a comparison in the pics as much as it was two tuners who saw an awesome photo op.
