why not go to a bodyshop for a rough quote? take pictures of the bodykit and ask them for a rough price.
if the bodyshop know what they are doing then they should be able to give you a rough estimate. only rough because they don't know the quality of the parts but still a better estimate than off here.
koni charges 1k to fit the kit from what i have read.
rage respray is 2k from what ppl say, based on paint prices and the fact that flip paint is harder to spray.
so i reckon 2.5k tops
find out rage paint costs first tho to give the bodyshop some guidence - think they are made by cambridge chemicals

go to your local cruise ask ppl with bodywork done, see what they think of the work and see what you reckon to the job
get your local phone book and go down to the different bodyshops see what you think to how they work, ask to see examples of their work

cheers jaffa,very helpfull.
Thinking of maybe just goin black with a metal flake cos its abit different. Other thing is i wont need to get the inside bits done then ie,engine bay,inside doors etc. so may work out abit cheaper. i can keep my black sunstrip then aswell lol

but that cvompany is also one of the bigger bodyshops where you pay for quality yes but you also pay for the name
smaller local bodyshops can match the quality for cheaper prices
