Looks like I'm going to get charged for the tape. They have to order it as they don't have the exact tape in stock. Oh well....as long as it looks nice and is done well, that's all I care about. So $130 for the paint and probably another $10 for the tape. I should have it next week sometime.

Nick, do you know the brand/trade name of the tape to use on that application?

Default Sorry, I don't.

It's at the dealership paint shop. He said there was a specific tape that went with the spoiler. He said the regular tape is too thick and would make the spoiler sit to high.

Wow, $140 for painting. For that, I think I'm getting my whole front end done - where'd you go?
