just wondering if it was the same car i saw last year i think at the mother perf meet thats all. i think you had meisters s2s or something a tad on the small side then.


yeah, same car - believe it or not, the meister S2Rs i had on there werent that much smaller.. its just that the offset with the kit made them look a *whole* lot smaller lol

If you don't mind me asking, about how much is it to get that kit installed, molded and painted?

i think it depends on your body shop guy... but factors to take into effect:



fiberglass always needs help

paint pricing can vary depending on what sort of paint you want

how **** your paint guy is when he is painting



but.. i'll just say its not remotely cheap, lol - easily in the thousands

Like he said, its all about who you get it to do the job.



Amature body paint guy might charge you $2-3K.. A well known professional might charge you 5-10k.



You need to call around your local shop... unless you want to send you car to works2r's body guy..

I have the CF but its painted over.. 3 coats of paint because its so hard to match the color.



I have another CF hood for my blk FD, but since its never seen heat nor sun, its still in perfect condition.
