Default Price for painting body kits?

I am getting the Nismo replica kit, just the side skirts and the rear piece. How much should I be expecting to pay for a decent paint job? My body shop has not quoted me yet, and I am just getting ballpark figure so I can be ready...

Thanks for any input..

IT really depends where you get it painted. Fiberglass Replicas typically allot more to prep in order for the paint to adhere and look good. So to be honest, id expect to be spending around 800-1300.

Yep this is true, this is the bad thing with the knock of kits. They usally cost as much in labor to get them right as it would to buy the real deal!
