Who painted it for you, and what finish? How's it holding up?

Thanks!

I painted mine myself, no sanding or scuffing down the exhuast tips. Its holding up VERY well. No peeling or anything. I just used engine enamel satin black spray paint.

I had Agency Power powdercoat the tips that come with their exhaust matte black.



I also powdercoated my wheels matte black too.

Nice Did you take out the tips? Lift the car? Remove diffuser?

Didn't remove the diffuser I just masked everything around it (Bumper, diffuser, etc) with a plastic film and just sprayed on 2-3 coats.
I didn't lift the car either but It would've been easier to paint since you have easier access.
