I would image if the dealer would do it, they would charge you an arm and a leg. It isn't supposed to be that hard to do yourself.

I did it myself this past weekend. You can see pictures over on the show and tell board. I didn't find it to be overly difficult. Just tape off the sections you don't want to paint ... get some decals from suncoast or e-bay and you'll be good to go. Only takes a few hours at most with an overnight to dry.

Good luck.
