  • New grills....where should I go to get it painted?

    Hey guys.....

    I've had this for a few weeks now and been meaning to ask but I have been so besy with work...working 10 to 15 hour days.

    But anyways I got myself a new grill for the Jetta, and I'm just wondering where is a good place in the city to bring it and get it painted? Of course a place that will do a good job and not break the pocket book...lol


    Kent

    p.s. I will make it to a NewVeeDub meeting one of these months....

      Paid members get discounts at Rudy's in the NE....there should be some threads about it somewhere if you search......

      BTW, did you buy those couches off of me??? They look familiar.....

        i always wondered, what if you bought a spray can of color matched paint from paintscratch.com and did it yourself.....only about $35.00.

          And it would look like it cost you $35.00 too.
