OEM Front Lip- Cost to Install?

Just wondering what you guys who got it installed were charged. I was hoping under 2 bills?
I def. feel it'll complete the look of the car. ALso have you guys seen the carbon fiber pieces for around the rear taillights? What does everyone think of those? Cant paste the link in but its at the 6mt.net shop. Thanks in advance.

Wow

Heck, too bad you're not closer, I'd help you out with that install.

I can't see it taking more than an hour. So just take a reasonable hourly rate x 1 hour.

Out of curiousity, my buddy is from Berlin, NJ, is that close to you?

Just do it yourself, man. I'm not mechanically inclined, and it took me 2 hours. Most of that time was figuring out the template, becuase I forgot to ask for install instructions. Just make sure to get the instructions, and save your money for a z-tube, pop-charger.

I should only take a pro 1 hour tops...so $85-$99 sounds reasonable to me.

Body shop near me said that it is really simple and said that if I threw $40 cash to one of their apprentices they'd get it done in about a half hour or so...

if you can find a place to do it for you for under $100, i would say let them do it. the install is actually pretty easy but time consuming. the hardest part is matching up the drill points and having to jack up your car high enough to drill the underbody drill points. it's time consuming because the templates for the drill points suck and you have to take apart all the underbody coverings for the install.
