Heres my situation i have a WW front and a TRD rear that needs to be repainted.I got a quote for 300 just for the paint job. He wants an additional 100bucks for installation.Is it really that hard to install these things?Do i have to drill a hole on my stock bumper.Also the WW front already has holes in them cuz i bought it used.

Its not hard to install body kits........... its just screws and tape that holds it on...........
if I have to rate it between 1-10 it will probly be in the negatives..........

just a bunch of screws, if you cant do it. find a local friend to do it. dont bother taking it to the shop, its an easy 100 bucks for the, save yourself the money and try it. what can go wrong?

at most you'll have to make a tiny pilot hole, but when my kit went on, it was put with self-tapping screws. Really, if you can use a drill and know which way is left and right, you should be able to do this.

Alright i just drop of my car at the paint shop i got the WW front and TRD rear plus the whole stock rear is going to get painted for 425 with installation.Is that a good deal or did i get raped?
before he wanted just 300 to paint the rear and front lip plus 100 for installation.
