Default Jdm Itr frontend

Hey Guys,
Just wondering.. whats the best way to have the front painted??
1) painted before install
2) painting after install

i dont want the car to look like its 2 toned, but i dont want to have the whole car repainted

thanks

I would say after so the paint shop can colour match.

This is what I did....

bolt on new RAD support, Test fitted hood, fender, bumper lights, till all lined up. spot welded the RAD support on.

Remove all body parts, painted them off the car, painted Rad support, then re-install everything.

I believe this is the best option. if you paint on the car you are likely to miss areas like on the fenders and under the hood.
