Paint body part

[aschmidt]

Guys, I've a need to paint a specific part - 51 21 7 396 544, passenger rear door key cover. Can anybody refer to a good place who can paint and ship it for a reasonable price? I can provide VIN to ensure paint match. I'm from IL if that's important. Thanks in advance.

You’re in Chicago and you can’t find an automotive body/paint shop to paint that little piece?

You could probably paint that yourself by just purchasing a can of spray paint of your body color. “What is your body color code? If you don’t know what it is…look at the VIN label (open your driver’s door)…there should be a 3 or 4 digit exterior paint code located on the bottom right of the VIN label (see A52/7 in pic below of VIN label...which is SPACE GRAY...and the other exterior paint color codes below).

If you search and/or order using the correct paint color & code for your BMW (you can find spray cans of your paint color easily by just typing BMW xxx/x {x=your actual paint code} into a google search box) and you could paint that part (#16 in diagram below) yourself. Just do multiple light coats

Thanks I got quotes only for around $90 min in Chicago area don’t want to paint myself because it will be a mediocre quality, want to get its quality close to OEM
