Where to get fenders painted?
 
I just got a pair of aftermarket fiberglass vented front fenders. They are primed and ready for paint. Where can i take it so they can match my factory paint for decent price? Maaco wanted 150 just to paint the 2 little fenders

Re: Where to get fenders painted?
 
Ill tell ya from experience getting my 04 bumper painted. If the item comes primed, then you need to take a piece of cloth with just a tiny bit of thinner on it and wipe it acrossed one of the edges and see if the primer wipes off. If it does, then you are going to want to reprime the things before you have them painted. Alot of companies use real cheap primer, and after you get it painted, it will all start to chip off by the slightest thing! The second time I got my bumper painted I stripped off all the primer and reprimed it before taking it in to get painted... Just an FYI bro.

why'd you get "aftermarket fiberglass vented front fenders" in the first place?

Just get 'em professionally painted. From what I'm seeing on google, $150 for the 2 fenders isn't a bad price.
