Default Repainting front lip CW Prices, advise

The front lip on the R was painted black from a previous owner. I'm slowly growing tired of it. What woud the cost be in repainting the lip only back to CW?

Would the paint match the rest of the car?

If not anyone selling one in great shape let me know

The lip might cost you anywhere from $150 to $200 to be painted. White can be a hard color to match due to the sun fading it...but its only the front lip, IM0 i dont think it would be too noticeable!

I went to a paint shop, got some Y56 PY paint in a can, sprayed a few light coats, sanded, few more light coats, and a few clear coats, butter. matches perfectly. cost maybe $20 for the 2 cans of paint I bought. no point in paying an arm and a leg for it, its gonna get scratched up again.
