saleen body kit

[blackstang04]

how much would it cost for a shop to paint and put on a saleen body kit? Also how much would it cost for dual exhaust, to be installed as well?

If you don't have a shop that you have a relationship with or a friend who can paint it for you you will spend about $1500 to $3000 to get the Saleen kit installed prepped, primed, and painted (including blending, don't just butt-match it cuz it will look like ****). The exhaust install shouldn't cost you more than $200 and if you shop around you can probably find a shop that'll do it for 100-150. Good Luck.

saleen kits don't have the holes drilled. you have to have them custom fit.

.........

so you paid for the kit (its 1300 now), then another 1800 to be prepped, painted, and installed? how much would it cost to just get it prepped and painted? I could prolly install it myself

You aren't going to pay much more for the install, and of all of the stuff to have done by the shop that is probably the most important. Body kits don't ever fit exactly right, this gets worse the more mileage that you have on your car. Because of this there is usually some degree of modification or tweaking that the kit will need in order to look right on your car (you've seen the ricers that run around with misaligned kits). You probably don't have the tools or experience neccessary to get it done the right way. Don't take a shortcut on something like this...you'll thank me when you've got your Saleen kit on your ride and it looks like a Saleen straight from the factory.
