So i dropped my car off at the shop this morning to get a quote and see how long it'll take for the guys to install my kit, but i was just wondering on how much installing a kit+painting it would be roughly..it's a JP aero kit, but it's not perfect, there needs to be some sanding and priming and such before install. Just wanted to check prices before i go ahead with this shop.

 

It varies by location. Some areas are more apt to have experience with body kits than others.

That is to say, you may have more luck asking in the regional forums.

 

Paint and install.... I'm saying $1000-$1500 depending on there experience.

 

well it is a tough area.i know that Florida/Cali are prone to bodyshops around every corner, but im up in the northeast(Rhode island) and there are few around here, this shop is very reputable unlike a few other places i've dealt with.
I talked to the guy just now and he said it won't be a 600$ job cause they want to do it right and make sure it's perfect. (foglights/paint match/fitment/durability) so im guessing maybe the 800-900$ range..

 

That's a hell of a price if they do it for $800-$900!

 

Well i'm hoping so. it's just a quote so im not sure(i'm calling tomorrow for the exact price).i wish this **** wasn't so expensive though.

 

You Get what you pay for. If you get it done for under $1000 and they do a good job then you got a good deal.

 

I just paid 2200 for the installation , that really hurt my pocket.

 

wow.
thats insane. what kit?

 

i paid around 1500
