What's the price estimate you are looking at to get everything together?

 

[rival]

guessing close to a grand. the RocketBunny flares being the biggest expense. I already own a rivnut tool. and have access to everything else needed like a welder, paint, bodywork tools etc...

I'm estimating a grand also including the flares. I have a rivinting tool but I will be letting the same shop who did my strut tower repair, do my flare install.

Here is a pic of my flare.

[95eclipser]

Thanks man! Im excited to get them installed. Yea I heard about him through a friend and when I reach out he said he had one set left. So I purchased them immediately. He may be making a V2 of the flares in the future FYI.I

bhah hahahah

 

[Terrj]

just asking since i see a lot of people do that. So estimate cost will be about a grand for labor and parts ?

 

[95eclipser]

Well I just got a quote from my body shop that replaced my strut tower for me.

To install the flares using bolts it's
$200.00 a corner. Cuting, metal work, welding and coating, holes with nutserts.

Addition $250-300 for paint.

So Estimated total cost of $1100-1200.00 but to also add to this, they wanted me to have my wheels and tire setup ready for install to help mock up flares, and would work with me to set the suspension height.

Thats not so bad actually.

I plan on installing mine on my own. Rear ride height is high enough where I wont need to cut. (I wouldnt anyway without rewelding for structural reasons). I'll post pics when i'm done.
