I installed mine a few months ago. It came pre painted and with a template. Installation is easy and straight forward. There is a forum member here who posted an install vid on YouTube (a ZR1 style) that illistrates the process well...but I don't recall his name. Search YouTube. He installs a carbon fiber wrapped ZR1 spoiler on a yellow Vette. Anyway, the full width spoiler looks great and you wont regret getting it.

Some colors are more difficult to match, so suppliers may be reluctant to sell pre-painted spoilers in certain colors.
If you have it painted locally, you have the option of rejecting a poor match without the shipping hassle/etc. when dealing with an on-line vendor.
But........my VR spoiler from RPI matched perfectly. Installation was a breeze.
