Q: What would it cost me?

[k_checo]

FYI ...I have received my jdm parts which includes of intersection lights, front fog lights, and side markers. I was wondering if anyone would give me a price range for the project at hand. Want to take to body shop to install these jdm parts. Cut out holes and install. What could be a probable price for this project?

to be honest, we arent a body shop, and we dont have a set hourly labor rate... call the shop you plan on bringing it to and ask them, because anybody here will tell you to pick up a dremel/hacksaw and do it yourself. its very easy and youd be wasting money paying somebody else to do it.

X2 on what mike said... its too easy to do instead of going and getting a body shop to do it...

i just dont want to mess up ...lol ...but I guess i am going to have to do it myself. Anyone in the New york area that has done it before and had perfect cuts want to help me out with this. Ill help out and will pay for providing help.

It's fun to DIY.

i guess you guys are right ...i just wanted to mount these parts up ASAP and it has gotten too cold to work on body in this weather. Ill think of something.

Just take your time and I'm sure the cuts will come out great.

My buddy Dfresh paid a shop $60 just for them to cut the fenders and install his side markers...wouldnt have any info about installing the other parts.

ya man diy is the way to go, i did my rear fog light myself and it came out great. I still have to do my jdm front fogs and im waiting till i have the time at hand to do it right because thats all it takes is patience and attention to detail and youll get the results you want. There are tons of DIY write ups on here to help you out as well.


And remember if you fuck up the side markers you can always get some cool JDM stickers to cover up the mistakes..there are a few on here rocking the sidemarker stickers! lol

lol @ the stickers. I thought it was to give it a nice look. But thanks for the help. Well I have decided to do it on my own. Asked my boy with the teg whos on my members ride page to help me out. All I need to do is buy some relays, wires and print out some DIYs from this page and await the free time.
