How much did it cost everyone to paint their Body Kit?

I was just curious as to the cost of everyone to get their body kit painted and mounted by a body shop. I'm looking to get my Extreme Body Kit painted and mounted by a shop and I'm getting estimates now. Just looking to see what everyone paid for theirs. Let me know. I'm sure other people are wondering too. Peace...

it all depends on where you go and who you know. it goes anywhere from backyard/home garage style $200, all the way up to extremely professional $1000. it all depends. most regular places run in between $500-$800 but it also depends on what area you live in.

I paid $900 to have my kit repaired (fiberglass cracked in some areas), painted, and installed.

Ok, Thanks for the info...I just got back from the shop today and the jagoff wants to charge me $2500 to paint and mount my kit for me. I'll prolly paint it myself, I know how to, but i would rather get it done by a shop. I'll do it myself and then it would only be at cost...
