Fx body kit help

Post by bayoumx-3 »

I just got my fx side skirts and wing inlast monday. well I went to a body shop today and to have it installed and painted they said would be around $1,000. So I'm going to wait and see if I can't just install it myself. If anybody can give many any information or instructions on how I might do this it would be greatly appreciated. <P>thanx in advace!

Heres what you do!!!! Cruize on your local strip. Meet some of the people there and get to know them for a few months. Then after you get to be friends tell them hey I got some side skirts and a wing I need painted on... Usally they will do it for cost of supplies and a case of beer. Least thats how they do it around here. Just be sure they dont have to many beers BEFORE they start working. ;)

took me about 5-6 hours to get it on straight and nicely.. Words of advice.. Silicone, screws, drills and lots of putty to fill your screw holes in.

I went to another body shop today and this guy was talking about bondo and repainting everything on the car except the roof . he said it was going to cost me $2,000 that's when I gave him the finger and left. Especially since i got a paint job on the whole car just a couple months ago!<BR> thanx for all the posts later!
