#55303, "$2500 for body work...am I getting it up the ass?"




          

I got a Bomex Body Kit, VIS Invader Hood, Z3 Fenders, GTR Spoiler, Carbon Fiber Projector Lights, and Vtech Tail light Covers installed. I got the side skirts molded, and my center light and covers painted. They also had to fix the gap around the headlights(the front bumper was for a 95-96). Are they screwing me over, or does that sound right?

the fenders and bumper are the only things that needed "work" done to install, that's pretty fucking high man, i'd say definately up the ass. i'd only pay 750 for all that at most, lights u can do urself, hood is 4 bolts,tail covers are hella easy to do, i dunno i'd never pay that.

i would say if they did a kick ass job on all of it, it wasn't that bad of a price. it all depends on the quality of the work. does it look like a "strait form the factory" paint job?

dood you pretty much got a whole paint job and got all that shit installed... Front you had to fix, molding it yeah... the only thing they didnt have to do is the hood. Might be a little high but i would have to see it in person to make the real assumption

Was it a true bomex kit? Because i Know with mine (knock-off) they had to do a lot of work to get it on right and stuff like that....I payed $3100 for my kit, z3's, painted center taillight, headlight install, wing install, color change, and couple other little things.

No.I was referred to him by a guy I knew at VersusMotorsports.I got the blitz painted first for 200.00 and then I went back to him a month later and he did the turbo wing and side skirts with them molded and all the paint blended for 447.00.

Good deal IMO, molding skirts on is shitty work. Not to mention the wing install n bumpers nwn. Alot of painting and patching n whatnot. Do it up, shop around if you want, but don't feel bad paying that for all that work.

That's an ok price. Might be a little high. I got my kit and fenders installed, sides molded, antenna shaved, and complete paint job w/pearl for $1100.

damn, I was quoted 2000-2500 just for a decent paint job. I was hoping only to have to pay around 1500 or so.
