i have some hatch rust and the other day i went to get the chiltons out of my trunk and it happened to be soaking wet... since it was almost 60 today i decided to take out my spare and see just how bad the leak was, i found probably 1-1.5 inches of water just sittin in my damn spare well. along with a soaking wet carpet and condensation all over the place.

so anyways, i e-mailed a junkyard about a half hour away about a hatch i found through car-parts.com. the guy was real nice and gave me a call back this morning about it. basically its a red hatch without a spoiler and with a wiper. i know there isnt much to paint really, but how much do you think it would cost to get it painted black from red? the hatch itself is $50, and i'm going to pick it up myself so no shipping. i'm not sure when i'm gettin it put on, i need to find a spoiler like i first because i don't care much for the spoielrless look and i think the 180 type X spoiler is a little too big and tall for my tastes.

summary: new hatch, red, $50, how much to get painted black, any subtle spoilers that aren't too expensive (lip would be nice too)
