^Why not ask for a number and call.

You are probably looking at for, prep, paint, bodywork, fitment, installment...towards the upper $900 mark.

Try DTM Bodyshop in Dulles near Function. Jason works there and Artuhr paints for them. That's part of the old Car ToyZ 2 shop who did mine.

Let's see how it came out.... If it was 3-4 pieces, ie a full kit,
and required all prep and fitment I think 1k$ otd is a good value
if its perfect.

Here you go.
Just got the car back from the final touch.
I gave him an idea of eliminating the gap btw rear lip kit and bumper using slicon, and it came out REAL nice!!!
The paint matches dead on, and installation is 100% fitment (Thanks fo Ken@Shine).
Overall I am very pleased with the kit and paint!

yeah nice cars in the garage, and the lexus 460 is nice too.
I think that kit is great for the look you are going for, but you need to be lower and have spacers to finish off the look, also just personal opinion I think painting the rim faces black will set it off

GENERAL RULE OF THUMB IS DOUBLE PURCHASE price.

if you pay 5K for a widebody...expect 5K for the install and paint.

300 for lip...300 for install and paint!

this doesnt alway work out this way...but its pretty dang close.

D&V Autobody in Chantilly or Aurthor at Frederick Nissan (CarToyz2 Arthur) is the only folks who will paint GZILLA.

good luck
