            So I bought some OEM IS Side Skirts, which just arrived - now I need to paint match these and my IS lip to the unknown shade of respray red that is my car - any suggestions on a CHEAPish place to take these bits that will quasi-accurately be able to match my paint? I'm in Silver Lake, so NoHo, DTLA, Glendale would all be preferable.
            Does Castro's do paint-matching?

            Also, if anyone has done the side skirt install, what's your preferred method? I don't REALLY want to drill if I don't have to - it seems that some people use the OEM clips on bottom and use some sort of 3M adhesive on the upper section, and using a self-tapping screw on either end to hold in place - sound reasonable?

            Thanks, sorry for so many questions.

                  Because everybody in SoCal is poor. They came on the 1991 325i Sport models here and a lot of cars in Europe.
