Platinum VIP thats the place to go with a lex, painting a lip can be more challenging than you think, especially with the flex agents and color matching

imo, better to pay the price to do it once and do it right.

My girl scared the lip and got a lil of the bumper too. Also, looking for a local shop. I know the IS turns sharp, but somethimes she thinks the car has rear wheel steering.

there is a body shop up the street from where i work. I believe it is called Alchemy located in corona. While i have no personal experience with them, i do see a lot of high end cars in there.

Otherwise if you are willing to drive out to and pay the extra bucks i have had good luck with santini paints.
