Painting side scoops, how much?

On average how much is everyone paying to get their side scoops painted? I just bought my Cervini's upper and lower scoops Sunday and I'm going to check around on places to get them painted and want to get a good deal. Any help would be appreciated.

I was thinking it would be cheaper since my spoiler was only $135.

Most places you buy from offer pre painted. That is easier than to get a body shop to gear up to spray one or two pieces. Maybe if I had a bunch to spray ( side scoops top and bottom, spoilers front and rear, Hood scoop) it might be worth talking to a shop.

If I could find some one who sells upper quarter scoops like cervini's pre painted I would go the scoop route.

Sometimes size isn't the only factor in paint/bodywork...You are looking at getting 4 separate pieces prepped and painted. My Cervini pieces were not to bad as far as the amount of prep-work required to paint but they all needed sanding and filler to get them just right (it's more work than most people realize)...I got some quotes as high as $500 dollars to paint them. Good bodywork as any thing else is going to cost some cash. Shop around and go somewhere you feel confident in doing you a good job. In the end you will be looking at the parts you chose and the paintwork that you had done to them for a long time...

Also a great idea! Does anyone know who sells the CDC Classic Chin Spoiler pre-painted factory colors? I bought my CDC Ducktail Spoiler that way and it turned out great...
