I'm practically done purchasing parts for the outside of my car.
This is what I have or will have in a couple weeks:

SS-III front and rear extensions
TRD Replica Spoiler
Laser Fenders(gotta be different)

now the fenders might actually need a bit of work before install, but everything else should be pretty easy.

Just like the title says...give a guess as to how much you think i will be paying to get this all installed.

One More Thing. I MIGHT also have the bumpers repainted because the rear is webbing and the front seems like it's been streched to where the paint cracked some...

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.

I had the exact same stuff, minus fenders, quoted (copy-cat) at a high-quality paint place, but they're also kinda low key so they're not too expensive. I got quoted 2200$ said and done. Complete pearl red repaint and everything mounted.

2200 for whole car repainted, got quoted 300-400$ for new parts mounted and painted. Again, that's not including fenders. Fenders are pretty large pieces so you're probably looking at like 500-600$ is my guess. Of course you could always just take it to maaco, they won't have to do any prep work so it should be all good.

Do you mean how much to bolt the parts on? Or how much to mold the parts on? Or how much to paint the pats and put them on?

i meant possible fitting and then just bolting...

although if i need to i might mold on the extensions...not always the smartest idea in PA though.

okay, i have no clue if these estimates were good in ANY way
but i got a couple. there are 3 holes needing patching from where the old spoiler was.
2 posts to the c/f wing need painted and installed
all SS-III bumper extensions need painted and installed although front fitment is good and i've already worked on the rear.
and here's the kicker...the fenders need the side skirts to come off, and possibly the headlight which means front bumper.

i'm not sure if anyone else has done this before but yea.

so a $200 for extensions to be painted and installed and a $350 for the spoiler to be put on changed to a total of $1500 to get both done and the fenders...
wtf...they can't really cost $950 to paint and install.

so i go to Toyota, which is expensive...but at least i get 10% off...still $1800...
yea, right..

trying one last place before i start to either flip and sell crap or save up.

do these prices seem real?
would i be better off putting the fenders on myself?
