I need a painted 3rd brake light cover...
I'm getting a spoiler installed on Friday. Didn't realize I needed a cover until now.
I called the place I get the spoiler from but they didn't carry the cover. Where can I get one that's painted? My color is ash blue mica.

The brake light cover isn't painted?

He doesn't have one - he is installing an aftermarket spoiler.
To OP, any body shop should be able to paint it for you.

I could probably paint it myself, but I have to get the cover.
Can't find it anywhere...

The brake light should come with the spoiler. Don't buy it.

I already have the spoiler. It's painted and ready to go. Lesson learned...
I'm just going to leave the original brake light where it is.

You can try contacting this guy...

Your other option is to disconnect the wiring for your factory tail brake lights and do what I did.
See this thread for more info.

You cannot see the third brake light behind the spoiler. so you really don't need the cover. Just make sure u disconnect the light in third brake light so it does glow behind spoiler and look ridiculous when you press brake pedal
