Well, you could take it to a body shop for an estimate. It might not be that much to have it repainted.

Or are you wanting a solution that you can do yourself?

if its not that bad of a scratch you could get a rubbing compound maybe and that might fix it.

My friend tryed to paint an aliuminum spoiler. He cleaned,primed, and painted with auto body paint, and the first rain we had the paint pretty much came off. I like to paint aliuminum it has to be baked in, or treated or something.

Or you can send it to an annodizer, which basically bathes your wing in some solution with the color in it, and runs an electrical current thru it.

how much something like that cost

depends, and it scratches quite easily (if someone keys it..)

but it should be ... ok for everyday driving.

pricing should be at around... 200-300? maybe less. keep in mind, the spoiler may need to be disassembled.. ONLY aluminum parts may go into the bath. If anything like plastic (god forbid) or stainless steel goes in, then it jacks up the thingie.

anodizing makes things VERY shiny....it wont even match his paint. the lip on my wheels is anodizing. anodizing is also VERY expensive - cheaper to just get it painted. anyway....just buy some touchup paint and diy until you can afford to have it repainted. or get some CF and wrap that badboy.

just remove the spoiler or mak the car, and spray paint it. i'm sure you can get a spray can that will match it.
