i finally have time to check out some auto body shops tomorrow. around how much should i expect to pay someone to install side skirts and ss-iii front and rear splitters? the skirts don't have any huge gaps, but they're not exactly flush either. the splitters are from chrisc and they seem to fit pretty well. and i still dunno if i wanna repaint the whole car or just match the color, depending on price.

Match the color. Black is the cheapest paint you could find. You can do the installation and paint job yourself. Just need someone who has experience to do it with you since you are new. And need the tools... tongue.gif But if you are lazy, it shouldn't be no more than 100 bucks to install them. But if you want to paint it too.. I guess add another 100-200 bucks.

350-400. After everything. I will say one thing. The splitters look is teh best damn look that you can give our cars. It GROWS on you in person.

sweet. cuz i've heard ppl paying over a thousand. but those are for entire body kits so it shouldn't be all the much for just splitters and skirts. and yeah, i love the ss-iii look. not too fancy but definitely sexy. can't wait to get it done. just wanted to know a rough estimate so i don't get over-charged.

personally, i'd get them to paint it and just install myself.. the front and rear splitters are very straight forward and bolt in the existing bolts under the bumper.. you just need double sided tape to stick the upper side on.
then do the how-to, provided that you've got the tools to do it..

you'd end up spending ~$200-$300 to paint and you save ~$500 from the labor.
