$2k is a huge freaken rip off. I have an 05 black 6mt with the greddy body kit (authentic); sideskirts and front bumper.. cant stand the rear greddy bumper thing. so ugly. anyway... i got charged a friend price of $500 dollars, everything fit perfectly, granted it was trust certified, paint was perfect... actualy, there was zero orange peel effect on the body kit and when you compare it to the car there is a lot more orange peel. ill attach a photo if you want to see.. the shop was in san gabriel and im really happy with their work.

Take it down to Syndicate Automotive in Kearny Mesa, it'll be much cheaper for top of the line work. They're working on my car as we speak.

They're repairing my front bumper and repainting it (someone backed into it with a tow hitch) and painting the roof gloss black. It'll be done tomorrow afternoon, i'll post some pics when i get home from work and let you know how they did. By the looks of the other cars they had painted at the shop, they do an awesome job.

They're charging $350 to repair and paint the front bumper and 350 to paint the roof. You're more than welcome to come to my work in miramesa any time and take a look at it since that's where i'm at most of the time.
