I look to see what it turns out like and hear a final cost.
The bill is around $2200 right now plus the $400 for the headlights, $175 for the bumper, $140 for the lip, and $70 for the inserts that go behind the cut outs in the hood.

pretty much $3000.....so far.

I want a good job done on my car. Plus I am having a lot of body work done as well. Dent removal (5-10), Holes cut in the hood, Two tone spoiler and rear bumper, and filling holes. (trunk, side strake holes, emblems, and license plate)

They are painting the door jambs, under the trunk, bottom side of the hood, and the top of the fenders. They are not painting around the engine. I think it will actually look good with a Black engine bay. If my car was any other color to start off with then hell yes I would paint the engine bay.

My car was painted today!! It looks Amazing! There are still quite a few things left to do, but It is getting very close. I got there right as they were unmasking it, It was like Christmas.














The pictures do not do it justice.
