Anywhere from $300-$500 I guess. It all depends on where you go. Just go to a few different auto shops and get estimates.

well ,, i bought my civic from a guy that fixes cars after small accidents,, i asked him how much would it cost me if i went to him to paint the body kit in the original colors and to install it ,(front bumper, rear bumper, side skirts), he said that the smallest bucket of paint would cost me 150$,, he told me that i would need two buckets so it would be for me like 300$ plus installation 200$,, i am still thinking about it ,spending those 500$,,,

i didn't pay anything because i'm sponsered by a bodyshop in my area but the range is from $500-$800 for a good job, if they give you a cheaper estimate make sure that they do a good job, and ask them how many coats of paint, my body kit just was painted recently and they put 2 coats of primer and 4 coats of paint and then 4 coats of clear coat. just try to see some of there past work, and see how it looks
