ill probably be buying an SD air damn in the future as well, after my build is finished. i might change to the GTX hood with a special edition spoiler as well not sure though but it wont be for a while atleast.
your car should look good with the hood an air damn, you should of bought everything at once because if your gonna have a shop paint it, it would be cheaper to paint all 3 things at once just sayin

I'm in no rush for the spoiler right now, plus i'm doing the two tone stock coloring on the Air dam, I hope that isn't to expensive

You do body work so do you think two tone stock coloring will be expensive to paint on the air dam?

Re: 1997 Black GTP, New Packages Have Been Ordered.
if you get the hood and air dam painted together it wont be as much, depends on what shop you go to and what color you want they will have to order your paint (black) depending on how much they order is up to what they think they need they might order a quart because they have to paint both sides of the hood and air damn though you most likely will be able to get away with a pint. but what im saying is certain shops will just order the silver or whatever color your getting, but if other shops may have a color close to it so they will use that and it will be cheaper (if they are honest) because minimum amount of paint you can order is a pint witch is WAY more then what you need for the silver. either way whatever shop you take it to ask for your extra paint and see if they give it to you save it for your spoiler. im not good at estimating so im not sure how much it will cost i just do the body work i never know what the shop charges. if i did this for someone i knew id charge $80 in labor because its not a hard job at all but a shop would maybe charge alot more. id say if they have to order black and silver and they order pints paint would be like $70 or so plus clearcoat and sealer if they use it and possibly adhesion promoter for the air dam. if they but a pint in black most likely they wont have extra at the end.

I was planning on painting them separate, I guess I shouldn't do that.

I hope you know that when you receive everything, its Freight Collect... so when your hood shows up from Conway (which takes FOREVER and may lose your hood like they lost mine) they expect cash on the spot or you won't get your hood.

Yeah dude, i wasn't happy about the freight collect shipping either. You "agreed" to freight collect when you put it in your cart and paid for it. It sucks.
