The 3rd shop that is suppose to be the best shop in town looked over the pics and told me for paint and install it would be... $1100. |shocked| I laughed so hard when he said that that he got mad at me. I told him that I got 2 other quotes for $200 or under and he told me that I was full of sh** and was trying to trick him to get a better price. I guess I won't be going back there.

 Wow! That's not only a huge price difference, it's ridiculous! lol Did the guy think you cut the original bumper and attach the rear lip or something? I don't see how he could justify charging that much, unless he's so full of himself he thinks his time is worth it.  |crazy|

^ Agree with above comment.

One thousand dollars is too much!  That's crazy.

Yup, I am very happy right now!  The next thing on my to do list is the exhaust.  I'm still debating which one to get but very likely will be the one you've.

oh... I had it done originally at a shop.  I just bring it back and told him to fill the gap and also paint my front grill (see my other post).  It's $250 for paint and install.  No additional charge to fill the gap.  The shop owner is a very nice person.  He definitely just gained a new loyal customer.

I got a quote for install on this piece painted and installed for $200 sounds fairly reasonable to me.......one place would only paint for me since they had not much experience with installing lip kits for $150.  Any feedback would be helpfulthanks guys.

For $50 dollars more, I would just have the place install it for you.

Yeah I thought so, because I figured it would be too much trouble if they paint got scratched or something during the install it would be hell taking it back and forth in hopes of repair.
