That's a really nice paint job its going to be epic once cleaned and polished up. What did it run you cost wise?

Initial estimate to start - 10k for disassembly, paint, and assembly which included the glass work. I did not "need" any body bending pulls.

I acquired and paid for new/used parts separately (CF hood, salvage hatch, new bumper cover, headlights, salvage door caps), and added additional costs to refurbish fix or otherwise modify the job, like extra for filling in the antenna hole, installing new hood pins in the new hood, installing new washer sprayers (which this hood had no holes for) etc. I also am spending to upholster the headliner, sun shades, and sun visors, powder coat brackets and wiper arms, restore the cowl cover, restore drip and belt moldings, new wiper blades etc.. which all add up.

I'm glad to be doing my part to support small business and keep people working.
