Kit Price Range

[FlyinHigh]

Just wondering about how much it cost for a full kit + paint generally, i know pricing varies, but how much yall paid, and how expensive the paint was/how nice it looks.

Thanks

I am getting a black widow body kit for my honda accord and it is gonna cost me around $800.00CDN. Paint on the other hand all depends on what you are getting. If you are just getting your kit painted could be anywhere around $500.00..........The paint job that i am getting on my car will probably cost around $3000.00 CDN

MY KIT COSTED $900 SHIPPED, AND MY PAINT/INSTALL COSTED $800.

Kit was $750 shipped, and paint is still to come...but I am getting a hook up from a family friend that paints. While looking around the prices for painting the kit were between $350-$700 w/ install. The biggest difference is quality. It's like this: Pick 2: 1)quality, 2)speed, 3) price. That is the rule of thumb for body shops.

got my kit for 1200 and the paint job cost 2500. Depends on what you like though. What kind of paint are you looking for and what kinda kit?

depends on how good quality the kit is and how good the quality of the paint job is. you could get some cheap knock-off kit and pay 300 bucks for the whole thing, then pay 400 bucks for a paint job and it will probably look like crap. but if you want to do it right then get a good quality name brand kit. like bomex, ground designs 2000, wings west, c-west, veilside, buddy club... the list goes on and on. you've also got to look at the bodywork that you want to put into it before it gets painted. actual bodywork dramatically increases the cost of the work being done at the paint shop because the man hours get really crazy. i can tell you now that if you want your bodylines shaved it takes a lot of skill and patience. or something like modifying the kit to make it more original like filling in a hole or moving the lines around so its a bit different then any other kit around. then you've got to think about the different colors of paint and different brands of paint. it all plays a role in the final cost of the job. you could get a good paint job for $1000, or you could pay up to $6000. it all depends on what you want. but no matter what, make sure that its what you want. and it always works a little bit better for you if you're at a shop that does more custom work if you let the painter have a little bit of creative freedom with the project. they'll put a little more care into the work they do becuase they'll want it to look good too. either way...good luck.
