Default Body Kit and Spoiler Paint?

hey guys,
I have a 2005 S40 T5 and I want to get a body kit but the one I want is only primered and "ready to paint" I am wondering where I can get it painted as well as if I have to get my whole car re-painted or can they match the paint?

Thanks!

Any reputable place should be able to match the paint.

Check local body shops in your area and see what they say.

About how much do you think it would cost?

good paint jobs aren't cheap unless you have a connection...you get what you pay for.

Would the Volvo dealer be able to do it?

I don't know if they can, but call and ask. I bet they will charge you literally an arm and a leg though.

Just find a reputable body shop. With the VIN the shop can match the paint. They'll probably be less than the dealer. Just stay away fromthe $99 paint job guys. As was stated earlier, you get what you pay for.

complete bodykit painting @ a GOOD shop will change you at the very least $1000 unless you know them and they hook you up.

Dont skimp on a bodyshop man, cause you'll just complain about it looking like crap afterwards.

Where you from?
