I paid $250 to get my whole Stillen kit primed, painted, and installed at a body shop...it was very worth it to me.

If you can come down to College Park, PM Squirrel82, his rates are much more reasonable.

$450 was for the whole bodykit, my mistake. I don't know of too many paint shops in B'more. Lochearn Autobody on Liberty road painted my side view mirror led lights and it was a perfect match, they do a good job. Maaco wanted $700 to paint the whole kit.

Did you guys use the screws or the rivets that came with the kit? Did you use the rivets in the wheel wells and the screws in lower vents?

I think its around or close to half an inch but not really sure about precise measurements. And this lip won't rip off easily since you can use the tough outdoor double-sided tape on some areas to secure it, and also securing it with the screws. they also come with rivets too but i didnt use them. Also on another note this lip will come off if you go off roading... don't ask

About half and inch lower near the tire, and about an inch lower at the very front. Keep in mind it sticks out about 2in forward of the bottom of the stock bumper.
