How much should i pay

How much is the average price to get a body kit like the xenon painted (sides, front, back)? Are most body shops able to color match or get the oem paint?

xenons are top quality (their name is really popular) so expect to pay over $700 for 4 pieces all around. There are other kits some as low as $400. Lip kits are nice too ranging the $300-400 area. Please just get your kit painted. Uncolored parts are not cool looking no matter what type of kit it is.

Maaco ( low cost )- http://www.maaco.com/
Earl Shieb - http://www.earlscheib.com/

Or a local shop.

It all depends on the place and quality. Bigger businesses can afford to give great deal because of the amount of work they do and the amount of product they purchase to do the job.

Its really up to you to call around.

Upwards of $500 for a quality job. That's just from what I've seen though, mostly local. If a shop isn't able to match or get oem paint (match is more important), they're a joke and you should go someplace else.

$1100? No way. I had my whole Firebird painted for $1300 and it was a super job.

$500 -600 tops for a kit.
