Not to be a smart a$$ but if you have to ask then it's too expensive. A true Wide Body kit like the APR will run about 4 Gs and a good paint and body guy will run at least another 4 Gs. Good Luck.

I say more than $4G to install and paint. It is going to cost me $3K for a new paintjob on my Evo with no bodywork...just paint.

and remember... if you are rolling with a widebody kit, people are going to mess with you (hell I have a regular body kit on my car, and I have civics with fart cans on my a$$)... just make sure you have a horsepower boost to match the exterior...

actually all I really wanted was to do the front fender kit with carbon fiber ducts, but then I got to thinking it might look retarded and it would mean repainting the car anywaysto might as well do everthing at once... then I found the jdm evo 9 bumper and well have to have one of those.... after awhile I was realizing I really wanted my car too look different (and to answer your question 2.4 stroker and gt35r=enough to mess with people I hope). In all honesty I would love to just peice a car together with the parts (exterior) I like the best, probem is there is no way to find out how they will look TOGETHER until they are on the car and by then, well it is the point of no return.... hense the widebody somewhat compromise.... my whole deal is performance first and appearance later so basicaly just seeing whats out there. Thanks!

you are looking at just under 10 or so for a good paint job and a body kit with installation and prepping to fit correctly...don't forget you'll need or rather want new wider wheels as well
