Classic MINI

I am looking to buy some aero skirts for my JB MCS. Does Classic do paint work as well? Also, for those who have ordered the skirts from Classic, how much did you pay with shipping?

I ordered some a couple of weeks ago. They were having them painted at the distribution center and then shipped. I can't remember the cost but it was going to be a lot less than if I bought them unpainted and had it done locally. I've got the info written down somewhere but can't find it right now. The best thing to do is give them a call and ask how much the shipping would be to TX. They are great people and very willing to give quotes over the phone.

They'll be open tomorrow. They painted the skirts for my '04 MCS and I had no issues at all, very good job. This time though, the painting will be done at the distribution center.

Cool. Do you remember what the cost was?

Haha, you do whatever you want bud, ive seen the crap work that comes out of Classic's half *** bodyshop.

Your the one taking the chance, I would have a local shop paint it so you can take it back if you dont liek how it turned out.

That's true. I am going to have to look around for a decent shop in Austin, and get some quotes.
