A good quality bodyshop doing a good quality paint job will be $3000+ if not more considering all the extras you are having painted and installed. That's in my area. I don't know what the going rate is where you are at. I would probably charge somewhere around $2000 for it.

No...I'm saying if I were to paint and install that stuff it would probably be around $2000, maybe a little more depending on what has to be done to the body kit. That also does not include cost of paint. That's labor charges. You're lookinag at probably another 300-400 to buy the paint.

No one is really going to be able to answer this question unless they are in your area. Try to find a good bodyshop trying to get on their feet. You'll probably get it done a little cheaper there then at a big bodyshop. Just make sure they do good work.

you should plan on spending about $3k with all of the stuff that you want done...a little more if you want them to strip all the old paint (which is the right way to do things)
