Color matching side skirts (UG), couple questions.
- Thread starter gti2slow
- Start date
3M double sided tape can be found at PepBoys or almost any Auto store.
I recommend going to a body shop. I know the shade of UG varies. I got a rear bumper from an 07 and it didnt match my 09. Then got side skirts off my friend's 09 and figured they would match my 09 and the color was completely off.
I can't find tape that is thin like the OEM used.

why not go to your local paint shop and have them exact color match since color changes over time. They can put it in spray cans for you i was quoted 200 something for 4 cans of paint, primer, and clear coat.
Thats not the stuff either, if you order new OEM side skirts they have tape on them.
Why not just pay them $200 to do it?
Because i was going to do the front lip, both side skirts, and rear bumper and that's way more then 200$.

Go to a paint shop for colour matching.
When I had my rear bumper painted they said there are actually 9 shades of white for the paint code they got from my VIN, they have different amounts if yellow and black mixed into the white.
