So, my car is still at the body shop where it's getting a complete repaint...or so I thought. I went to go pick it up on Saturday, but there was a couple scratches in the bumper that showed up that he needs to fix before he'll give me the car. Anyway, as I was looking at it, I noticed that they hadn't repainted the headlight brows or the grill (98 LSC). These were the worst-looking spots on the car and a large part of why I wanted to get it repainted. The brow on the pass. side is flaking off really bad and the grille has some bad spots on it. When I asked him about it, he told me that pieces like that were not normally part of a paint job. He then pointed out that he didn't paint the parts around the rear taillights and neon (which don't look bad at all, so I don't mind). He also said something about not being able to paint the brows and the grille because of the material it's made out of, and not being able to sand it down. I know people have gotten these pieces painted before....how did you do it?
