Amazon spoiler

Hey there,
I went ahead and bought an amazon spoiler for 65$ comes with a primer on already, any direction in where I could the best paint match for the spoiler? Would like to avoid taking it to a paint shop but if it's necessary I'll do it. Have a good day

Return it and buy a prepainted one for $100. They're usually not hard to find.

Simple as looking up your paint code and getting spray cans for it. You'll need to wet sand between coats and clear coat for it to look good though.

Paint code is in your door jam BTW.

Seriously....this. Look in this section for a thread called eBay spoiler. Plenty of links....mine was some of the lasts posts in it. $100 painted.

Mine is Alpine White and a perfect match.

Yup. I got an Alpine White on eBay and it looks amazing for a hundred bucks. Worth not having to deal with paint.

They will have match to your color code and clear coat. I have done this with parts like grill surrounds and the match is great.
