My family has used it for the past 10 years for so many accidents and fixes and it has always turned out to be good work. For my obsidian IS350 I got 85% of it repainted, but they blended the parts that were not repainted so well that in direct sunlight there was no difference.

I think you'll receive better responses if you posted this question in the SoCal section.

Curious as to what front lip you're getting painted.

Yep, either pay for quality paint job or cheap out and have some ugly orange peel paintjob which anyone can obviously see. If you don't have the money for it, save up or don't do it. Painting a bodykit with good paint should be around 500-700.
