600 hundred that is a lot. Most of the shop that I went to in Sac, they were asking 400. I am not really sure about the 510 area though? What kind of kit did you get?

it is the uncle of my friend.. he (uncle) owns a body shop.. "Santa Clara Auto Care".. that might be a good idea... we should make an arrangement.. I am still planning to wash my car and remove my kit to clean them when I get time.... and like I said still waiting for my eyebrows... then we should make an arrangement.. I will try to ask him if he can give it $250 for the two of us

he would only probably charge your $300 too.. just tell them JR (with a silver civic same kit) and KENNETH recommended you.. well I decided I will do it myself bro... since my brother has all the equipment (compressor and the gun).. all I need is San Paper, CLEAR COAT, REDUCER, PAINT, AND THE FLEXIBLE THING ( LOL) buy them from NAPA.. and my brother's friend will help me mix and paint the kit.. that would only cost me $100

nice XAM thanks bro!

civicguy777, I saw your kit at the shop today it was in the box .. you didn't test fit them first? you should have though.. most likely they're not gonna fit well you gotta have to make some adjustments... especially the side skirts.. anyway, I can't wait for them to get painted.. you know across the street.. there's a tinting shop (my GF's dad is the owner) if your car is not tinted yet.. or know anybody.. just lemme know if you want to get tinted.. just across the street of the shop... ayte bro catch u up later!

How much would it be to get a tint on my car darker? The front windows are too light of a shade. I would like them darker.
