    paint job recommendations

    Ok so I want to get a bunch of things painted and I've never done/had it done before. As of right now I want to get my side mirrors and moldings painted to match my lunar mist CE.

    The molding doesn't sound too hard, I'm assuming you would take it off before having it painted right? Does anyone know how to do this without ruining it?

    If I get my side mirrors painted would the paint shop take the glass out (if that's even possible) or just mask it? Does anyone know how to remove side mirrors?

    Lastly I want to get some body kit pieces painted. I don't have them yet but I'm working on getting the factory style lips, skirts and spoiler that come on the S.

    Any advice on what to look for in a paint shop? The two I have heard of are Maaco and Earl Scheib. I'm assuming places like these 2 will do a much better job than me with a can of paint.

    sears auto center does a decent job, im not too sure how much i would trust little private owned shops, if you get in good with one...amazing, but thats hard, plus its easier to bitch and moan and get something accomplished with a big chain. be weary of prices tho, shop around, some places are crazy
