total cost of body kit

[ericismyname]

so lets say i wanna put a kit on my talon. i already know i gotta get some tezzas so the rear bumper fits. what do u think its gonna cost me estimated grand total for the kit new paint job putting it on and putting lights in?

bodykit-700
paint----500
lights----150
approx cost--1350

now this is just an estimate depending if you find a good deal on a kit and might know someone who owns a body shop..this is something you dont wanna go to cheap on to make sure it will last!

If you are doing a talon conversion don't forget the backup lights

some may be knock-off's that have poor fitment, that will increase the cost of the bodywork..plus it may never fit quite right or last as long as a name brand one

buddy club2 = $850.00
Paint (materials only) = $200.00
reverse lights '97 and up.= $40.00

about 1200.00 +/- $200.00

put the deposit on my kit, and i should recieve it from henshin in 2 weeks.
Paint? gonna do it myself, i just have to buy it, and rent a booth.
the reverse lights, got 'em at the dealer.

instead of keeping the talon taillights why not convert the rears to an eclipse? and if you do it will open up your options on rear bumpers.

i wanted to put eclipse altezzas in the back.

what if, i put the 97+ talon bumper you know the cool one? and then put blitz side skirts on it and then put the 97+ spoiler (that one that sticks up) would that look still good? or would the new bumper not be low enuff compared to the side skirts? sorry if it sounds like a newbi question.
