ouch. I recommend RJ Paint shop in Pleasanton. They painted my spoiler and RJ was really cool, he knew I wanted a good paint job but didn't want to pay big money for custom matching for a spoiler so we found a happy medium.

Oh no :(

My last car had some body damage and I took it to this place: http://www.yelp.com/biz/falcon-colli...enter-berkeley - well, same business, but they used to be located in San Mateo, which was more convenient to me, and they're not that close to me anymore, but it's not that far for you. They quoted me at 1/2 the price as the other estimates I got; the two other two shops I got estimates at told me I'd have to replace my fender but Falcon was able to smooth it out/repaint and I couldn't tell it was ever damaged. It's been a few years (like 4), so hopefully they're still good. Hope this helps.

gotta warn you though, from what I remember in the Carsmo spoiler thread, getting the whiteout/SWP paint to be a perfect match is a challenge. They resprayed their test spoilers a few times and ultimately gave up trying to paint them in bulk, suggesting that you get it painted locally instead. I can see RJ saying, to do it right and ensure a good match will cost more than just mixing the standard paint code and hoping for the best.
