Thanks.
It was a local shop. A close friend owns it, and he wouldn't do this for others. Takes too much time away from the booth, for insurance jobs. He basically just charged me material, and shot himself. And he NEVER paints anymore.

But if you called around, I'm sure you could find a local shop to do the same. But it might be more expensive to paint a dark topper to a lighter color, than a lighter one to dark. More time, more material.

You might just be better off to buy a new one.
