i think you can have it painted and shipped to you in your paint code.

"We can paint your spoiler to match your factory color. Just supply us with the year, make, model, and paint code of your vechile, and we'll do the rest. We use the highest quality Dupont paint, and our process is state of the art. We paint for dealerships around the nation. The additional cost for painting is $89.00. *Vehicles 2 years or older may be faded. We will match the spoiler to the factory color, however we are not responsible for matching faded colors."

Personally I would have a local shop paint it.... Paint code would be close, but local shop can paint match to exact level of fade/discoloration (We are talking a 10+ year old car here).

the thread on ls1 tech i posted has lots of people vouche for the color match shipped painted. your choice but mine came primed only reason I didnt get it painted was I was having the whole car painted.

it comes with a real slp 3rd brake light too, or mine did at least. you have to wire in a relay if its an lt1 car.

They can only match fade if they blend it in and then your talking over 200 for paint. It will be close enough for the 89 dollar spray. I think anyway.

Not True.... I've watched them match paint chips to account for fade.

When my dad had spoilers put on his cars, he drove the car to the shop, and they had paint chips they used to match the fade of the color. Then they simply paint the spoiler the color of the chip.... They had ~10-15 versions of green for the MG, and ~5 of Silver for the corvette.

I've also seen them mix the adjusted color codes at the shop my buddies father owned as well.

No need to fade he paint if you chip match first. It may cost more than $90, but certainly shouldn't be $200... They are just painting the spoiler itself, but just need to paint match directly to the car first.

Again just me personally - but I would go with local paint matching. But hey $90 is certainly a deal if you just want it close in color.:mytwocents:
