Paid $84. Pre-painted in Starfire Pearl from OEM.Thing. Paint quality is good, but definitely not a match....avoid eBay pre-painted if your car is pearl or another hard to match color...
Note its just laying on there in this, its not actually fitted...the fitment is actually quite good.
I think i'm just gonna wrap it when i do the roof wrap. Unless the color difference isn't noticeable anymore afterwards.

^ That's what i thought bro! lol
I compared it to GFM it's not GFM either. It matches my car better than GFM lol.
I asked though, he says the paint code that it's "stamped" with underneath is what was used. Says 077 underneath, so i guess it was starfire pearl.

Well, white paint yellows and fades in time and under the sun, so unfortunately a fresh coat of perfectly matched paint would still be off in color unless your car has a fresh coat of paint as well 
. It doesn't look that bad KillaIS250. I doubt anyone will look that closely!

I'm either gonna wrap it along with the roof when i get that done or gonna sand it down and prep it and have a local shop repaint it black. It's not just the color fade though, because the OEM spoiler and GFX rear lip still match pretty well despite my car being an 07 and the parts being new.
There's too much pearl in the spoiler, even if my car was newly painted, it wouldn't match because of the pearl.

I have a MRM and I got mine from OEM.Thing also. I don't remember exactly how much it was, but it was around 100. The paint is pretty close to perfect. You can't really notice anything unless you're super up close examining it, and even then, it's very very close.
