Help!...how much would this cost?

I need to replace the stock skirt...or running board or whatever it is...underneath the door. From behind the right front tire, to about midway through the front passenger door. no damage to the doors..just the skirt under it. About how much do you think it would cost...honestly?

R U sure you need to replace it. Most times it's repaired. Replacing it is gonna be expensive. Hows about a pic?

it's hard to say with out pic's. I seen them repaired even tough they are pushed in. but if it crushed then probly need replacement. Why don't you swing by your local A/Body shop and get a quote

I had planned on that, I was just wondering if anyone has had this problem before and has had it repaired, and how much it cost them.

Where in New York are you? take it to my shop. They'll cut that piece out and weld a new one on there

Talk to Hugo. Say you're tall Andy's friend. I drive an infiniti I30. He knows my car well

If you pay cash it shouldnt be more than 300 depending on the cost of a new panel. And it will come out flawless

Buy a hammer and a Stillen body kit. It will cover it up perfectly.

I agree, the lip kit is the best way to cover it up

I dont think that there is much left to put the lip kit on...just by looking at the pics. How does it get installed?

I dont know. In terms of cost it's cheaper to just repair it. The stillen kit would look awesome. But from the looks of his pics the car isnt dropped.

Stillen Kit + Drop is like $1200.
