I had a hard time painting mine. It wasn't real smooth or shiny. I used my same body color and then dupli color clear coat but it doesn't look like it belongs. It might just be my color?

I'm gonna repaint it sooner or later

Depends on the thickness of your double sided tape... I used 3M and had to double it up... Sits flush...

This is the only one I can find with the bowtie but does this website look legit?
Looks kinda sketchy to me.

I will help you,
I don't have any experience in that site.In order to help you,i checked whois database of the 3800performance.com using WhoisXY.com .They have good format information in who is database.Using this information,i didn't confirm is the legit or not.Then i checked that company complaints using scamadviser.com I got "High Trust Rating. This Site Looks Safe To use." message.So it's a legit one.I hope it will be very useful to you.
