does anyone know how much it would cost to have a body kit painted and put on? i own a 00 gxe and i found a kit would like but i dont know if i will have enough to get it painted. i want it blended and everything i dont want a cheap looking job. any ideas?

 

My estimate to install/paint my full stillen aero kit is $275. This may be a bit lower than normal, because they put a motor in my truck last year for like $2k. Hope this helps!

 

no not the stillen front clip, a whole new kit, like the kamanari kit or the skyline kit

 

I assume you mean either the Kamikaze/Ninja/Sarona kit or the Skyline kit that doesn't exist. Definitely look into the Sarona kit before buying it, from fitment to quality and durability I've heard nothing but bad things. And no one has even seen the Skyline kit that was supposedly coming out last spring so I wouldn't hold your breath on that one.

As for installing and painting...I think the $275 that Maxima-2 got was an inside deal. I would expect it to be more around the $400+ range for a complete install and paint. My $.02.

 

No way. you wont find anyone who will do it that cheap.

 

if you are looking at the kamikaze/combat/sarona/vis, kit definately get it from spoilers etc.net!!!!, i just got mine from there. everywhere else it is from $600-$1200, they have a promotion now untill dec 15 i gotmine for $450!!!!!!!!, and so far the best price i got to have it put on and ppainted pearlwhite same color as my car was $800, everywhere i go they want like $1500 if you have anymore questions about the kit pm me ill be glad to help

 

thanks, but i dont think i have that kind of money. i was hopeing it would be cheaper, but if it costs that much to get it painted, it would just sit at my house and never get done. i was just thinking about it.

 

yeah i have been saving up for a wile, i mean im only 18 money isnt easy to come by

 

im only 19 and in college so i am poor, but i had a little money saved up and wanted to blow it on something.

 

And you say that based on what? Because there is already 1 person in this thread who had theirs done for $275 and I've personally been quoted $400 for an installation and paint on mine. There are tons of people on this board who have had theirs done for under $500. It's all about where you go...if you walk into any local body shop as an unknown customer and ask them I'm sure they will want over $1000 to do it. But if you browse the Regional Forums on this site and go to your area there is an Installer sticky. That's your best bet to find people that a) know what they're doing as far as a Maxima goes and b) might give you price break since you're a fellow member of the ORG.

 

thanks i'll look into it today. my car is in a shop right now because i went off the road in the rain into a drainage ditch and hit the end of it. you can imagine what it did to the car. the front right was torn off the car and 7,000 dollars total. so since i havn't been driving anywhere i have been saving money. so i will look into it thanks.

 

cus the kit he is talking bout isa whole new rear/front bumper. im getting mine on/painted after this winter but ive been looking for a good shop for bout 10 mon, 800 was the best ive found. thats what i was basing it on. yeah no doubt there have been org members who have done it for less i was basing it on my experiance
