    Default How much those a Paint and Bodykit Job Cost?

    Ello!
    im dan, and i have a question for you all motorized vehicle owners. im bout to get a car. i have a choice betwen porsche 944, mitsubishi eclipse rs 2000 or a mercury couger. but financially due to car maintance and priceing and stuff im leaning to the mercury couger since its a v6 2.5L n well i can find it cheaper n with less miles then the mitsu or porsche.

    So i was wondering how much dose it cost to get a bodykit installed? i plan to get the car and as soon as i do, send it to a shop to get the kit installed and painted all at all once. ive seen some nice kiting of the couger,

    i like this set up:

    Sides
    Rear
    Front


    ne also know a good paint shop n how much the usual price for just a shiny black paint?

    cuz i was thinking of just setting a 1000$ budjet for this improvement thing lol

    Quality costs. If you go cheap, that is what you will get. Good quality chemicals (paint, sealer, etc) cost good money. Poor quality doesn't cost much.

    ahh thnxs lots man for the site, i like the 99-02 Mercury Cougar Blazer Body Kit damn 800, time to save up lol yah everyone also tells me they do good jobs, eh good stuff cost a lil pricey so i dont mind.

    if body kits come with install instruction im good (i built a few computers from nada up) if no instructs im sure sumone wouldnt mind 50-100 bucks to install it :p

    Anyone that will do it for 50-100 shouldn't be touching a car. Don't buy the kit, if you can't afford to pay for the work.

    if buddyclub2 makes one for it then buy it. it will fit perfect but buy a real bc2 not a knock off. contact rons350z he will hook you up on the kit. but damn who charges $2000.00 to install a body kit.
