Cheap paint + install for trunk spoiler in SoCal?
So, I live in Yorba Linda and I am thinking about picking up an unpainted spoiler from a nearby auto parts store. Unfortunately, the place does not do paint + install...so, I was wondering if anyone on here knows a place around the OC or LA where I can get a nice reasonable deal on a paint + install job..keeping in mind I'm a college student on a fairly tight budget - doesn't mean I won't get it done obviously, but I'm always skeptical about the price quotes I see for anything involving paint on a car part. Anyways, any help will be much appreciated!

I usually go to a shop called Chicago Auto Body in Hawaiian Gardens. The manager always hooks me up with free or very minimal payments for things I installed on my car.
They've painted my grill gloss black and installed my diffuser and lip.
I could give them a call and tell em a "friend" is coming if you want. Just PM me.

Nahooj,
I bought this pre-painted spoiler on ebay with perfectly matched color. Installation is super easy and took my wife and myself 5 minutes to do. The best $74 mod I have ever done.
