Autobody Shops in Bremerton for Getting my Kam kit painted

[Phaseshift]

Well, after running around doing some research on these autobody shops around Bremerton to paint my kit, the best deal I got was $300.00 for my Kam Kit.

Here are the responses for prices and reasons:

Shop 1:
$1000.00
Claims that polyurethane is very hard to paint on. They would have to put several coats to get it right.

Shop 2:
$900.00
Same as above.

Shop 3:
$500.00
They would have to ship it out to a paint shop in Tacoma.

Shop 4:
$300.00
They have all the equipement in house, and it's no problem painting.


I excluded the names cuz I don't want to advertise or give anyone of them a bad name. But if you would like to know, e-mail me and I'll send the the shop names.

As for painting polyurethane, isn't our stock bumpers urethane?

My stock? It's good. But I'm not going to sell it. I plan on taking my kit off during winter months and installing the stock.

I finally got it painted, and it's a "OKAY" job. There are a few scrathes here and there, and there are areas that need improvement. Hey, for $300.00 bones, it's what I get. Get what you pay for.

I'll post some pics soon.

Uhm, during the winter you can keep the sides and rear, but I would just change the front bumper back to stock... I have 2 years experience with this kit and that's my advice... Rear is sort of a paint to take off... Front is much easier :)

Hmmmm.. I don't think the stock bumper looks good with the Kam sides and back.

I don't mind doing the effort. I gotta keep my investments in good condition.:cool:
