Body work and why it is so expensive?

[outkaster]

Ok, all i was looking for was a Blitz or Battle Z front bumper just like the one in FAF (call me trendy). But the story for all the ones i found was...

Cost: $250
Shipping: $150-170
Painting: $160
(Ureathane)

Is there a cheaper way, thats like a $550 bumper. The full kit is only $750 does that mean getting that would come around 2g's?

shop around and see if you can find good shipping rates for a full kit. If you buy one piece at a time then shipping is a real b!tch, not that it is cheap to begin with. And painting isnt cheap mostly because of materials.

you get what you pay for. good body work is hard to find and worth all the money. the cheap way out is to get a used blitz bumper in your cars color.
