just picked up an ap2 bumper+lip and was wondering what you guys think is a reasonable price for paint... called a shop and got quoted over the phone for 500 for berlina black but does that sound a bit too steep?
oh and if you guys know any good paint shops around the bay with reasonable pricing please let me know! thanks

Erick at Multi-Craft in Burlingame did my rear bumper and did a great job. I wrote a short review here

Quality doesn't equal cheap. The color match will probably be "good" at best, and the orange peel will most likely be TERRIBLE. Expect to see runs in the paint/clear, DA sanding marks all over the place, and terrible prep work.
