Can you install the lip yourself ? Also just remember sometimes cheaper isn't always better mis matched paint or using cheap paint. keep us posted on what shop you go to and of course post pics after you have it installed.

I got my polyurathane lip painted by Sean at Elite Customs

714 497 3817

Sometimes poly urethane can be more expensive to paint if the lip isn't too high quality. More solvents are needed to get the paint to adhere, yada yada yada.

You can name drop me if you like

This.

I paid the price by going to a cheap place and regretted every minute of it. Save up the extra cash and pay someone who knows what they're doing.
