I have got a local guy who is selling me a brand new z-glide lip kit for $250. Does anyone know approximately how much it will cost to have it installed? I know that it will be a couple of hundred dollars more because of the modification that will need to be done to the rear but how much do you think it will cost. It shouldn't be as much as the full bumper kits since it's just an add on but you never know. How much will it be to have it molded on (just sides and rear) compared to just the regular install? Anyone with experience with this kit or if you have an idea let me know. Also my dad is very knowledgeable when it comes to car stuff. How hard would it be to have him install it? Thanks for your replies...

i don't really know how much it really costs since my uncle owns a body and paint shop hehe. if i have the time i'll ask.
But...i have a coupe and i too have the z-glide rear lip. He had to cut the two ends and extend it (w/fiberglass). the rear bumper of the coupe sticks out more than the liftback. make sure you get a good person to mold it and mold it tight if you want it molded in so it will last long. but of course cracking over years is expected and when that happens make sure to have it repaired immediately. dont plan on autocrossin that car. all should be done professionally. my car still has one week in the shop left... and damn 250? is that for the whole lip kit?! good price... O_O brand new.... This post has been edited by CelicaTEK: Apr 29, 2003 - 12:32 AM |

I'd say between 500 and 800 dollars for the install. I wouldn't recommend doing it yourself unless you have some experience working with fiberglass.
