im not really sure how these group buys usually work, especially with painting. i was wondering if anyone was planning on getting their side-skirts painted and would be interested in doing a group buy. how much would something like this cost?

thanks

 

i'm interested

 

if price is right, I may also be interested.

For myself I would also be interested in having Morette's and fog covers painted.

 

i'm in if someone makes it happen.

 

lol, i don't think i made myself exactly clear, i wasn't offering to take on the job, i was actually wondering how the whole process works, and would be interested in submitting my side-skirts if someone else wants to take on the job? anyone interested? how does this process work?

thanks

 

as far as i know a few guys in SoCal had this going. you send in your sideskirts or just meet at the local shop. they ran there group buy for right around 70-80. Not sure how many were in on it thou. But I can ask about it.

Basically find someone who got there's painted and get the shop #. or just hit up a few places that would do it.

ask how much it would run for one set and get a run down on what the discount would be if you got a grip more. 5 people-$150 10 people- 120. and so on.

 

I got my skirts painted from a group buy. The shop was in the East Bay (Hayward) of the Bay area. It costed me $50 for the skirts. The color match wasn't as great as I hoped it would be and the paint job on the skirts themselves weren't smooth, it was really rough and I thought they were gonna sand my skirts down in order to have a smooth finish. What made it worse was that the guy running the shop mixed up my skirts with another Impreza owner's skirts. One of his skirts were kind of deformed on the botton because they must have missed the undercarriage and got the sideskirt. So, my skirts got painted WRB, while I had to wait for another few day while to get the other owner's skirts painted MBP.

On the upside, my friend got his done on from a group buy and they did a marvelous job. He paid about $30 I think. So, I think depending where you are located, the more people you can get the better the discounts for everyone.

 

If i can find somewhere to paint my sides for 30 dollars, ill be a happy man

 

lets try to get the ball rolling on this thing!

 

im interested

 

anybody going to be doing this?

 

I'll do this, if we get about 10-15 ppl. Everyone just sign up ( there's a shop that color matched my urthane bumper for 180 ) so i'm gonna take it to them and ask how much it's gonna be. Post here with your name so i can keep count. I will send a PM to everyone that signed up once we have enough ppl.

P.S I'm not gonna count the ppl before my post, so if you've posted already, please repost. OH and this will only be for the Greater Bay Area folks. The shop that i'm thinking of is in Hayward to be exact. Right across the street from MPJ Performance.
