Alright guys what should I do?

I just got the Tsunami T2000 front bumper, and buddy club sides and rear in urethane for my 97 Civic Coupe. Milano red is notorious for oxidizing and fading and what not. I can get my paint "matched" at a local reputable paintshop, but I hear it may only be mixed as a two-stage color, not the tri-stage as it was originally OEM. Also, assuming this matches ok (which I hear it will not), if I have the materials and know-how, is it possible to successfully paint my parts to look nicely somewhat matched? I've already painted my OEM sideskirts to match my car, came out well, but I used a rattle can. Gonna buy the good stuff for my new body parts.

 

Take it to a shop and have the whole car repainted.

 

Have a good body shop do it and they'll make it look like it came stock.

 

How much would that cost generally? Because I can do it myself for $150 plus the price of the gun. And I deffinately dont have the money to get the car redone...I would only have enough to get the $800 job, not a REAL paint job with the correct prep.

 

bump for help!

 

I would imagine $800 would be enough for the bumpers and sideskirts, but it may vary from region to region. Just find a reputable body shop and get a quote.
