man i live in san diego and i been to a few local shops...and no way your going to get a whole paint job and the rear kits fitted for 600 bucks....maybe a place like all pro body shop that paint your car for like 200 bucks but it would be a bad job......maybe if you find a nice place in tj even there for 600 its asking to much

good luck! gilbert is right, no way you can get that done in san diego. All Pro paint and body sucks! i had them paint my car the first time for $400 and it was crap. they didnt paint the door sides or the trunk. and it took them 3 weeks to do. i have no idea what the hell they were doin with the car for that long for ony a minor dent and paint. the paint they used was easily scratched and they didnt prep anything. they just painted right on top of the old paint!

I just got my car back from Carcoa in Clairemont Mesa. They did a great job! they fitted my kombat front and the laser fenders. and their paint is awesome! plus they gave me a lifetime waranty. but i did end up paying $3200 for everything. And trust me, that was the cheapest quote i got!
