you can also paint it blind folded. it will probably come out the same . hehehe

Save your money and have it done the right way, if you have the patience.

if you screw upon painting it, you are going to have to have the body shop fix it so why not just have them do it right the first time.

Get it professionally done. You don't want to mess up and regret it because it will end up costing you more.

Can a bodyshop also repair a small crack on an ITR Lip? If so, how much would it usually cost? Thanks!
