There wasn't much body work done at all really. Just minor finger tip sized ones around the car. Couple hours on the door and that's about it. It's the labour you pay the top shops and the hours it takes them to perfect it.
You can get very good quality for less than 6g's (including molding) but just make sure they make brackets for the skirts, rear and front bumpers. EXTRA brackets. When the skirts are reinforced, they dont flap around and fall off like some cars you see.
Plus you gotta remember that taces alone were about 800.00. If you can get someone under the table that will warranty their work. There's even MORE money to save.
I just wanted to make sure my *** was covered and the best body shop in this town did it. Unfortunately everyone one in this town suck, except for them and they know they can bring their prices up because of it.
wow the kit and the color just look too outrages to me.... but its nice body work and paint... altezzas are nice and maybe should put on a erebuni spoiler..
never really liked full body kits or those wheels but i really really like what you've done - it all came together and looks amazing.
well done and i agree - one of the best looking mx-3's i've seen from a user on this board. *and* a b.c. ride! nice job!

Cost of the kit to be molded on and the whole car to be painted was $5700.00. I had some body work like minor dents and door handles needing repair too though. So anywhere from 5 - 6g's I'm guessing depending on the condition of your car. You definately get what you pay for though. There hasn't been a problem and the paint is flawless.
Wow thats a little crazy, you can't argue with the results though, they more than speak for themselves. That is one hell of a slick paint job.
