You gonna get new tailights too ;egads:

No 2 places will charge the same. Cheap side would be $2000 for a crappy job, $5000 would be a quality job.

For a Quality job, you're easily looking at $5k plus. Don't forget, you get what you pay for.

Thats my widebody SC or what it use to be. btw thanks for the <3

FYI... My widebody was AUTHENTIC vertex ridge....(want real? 3k easy) you will be getting a poorly and bad fitting RACEONUSA copy.. which does not fit correctly.. be very warned on the work you will need to make the RACEONUSA fit right, you are looking at $5k+ in body/paint work.

You need a prayer if you are going to buy a kit from RACEONUSA because the kit is no where near close to fitting..I say get the Vertex Ridge, authentic is well worth the price..

Guys I've removed a few rude posts from this thread. Absolutely no problem if you don't like the approach or direction this member is taking with his SC, but please state your constructive comments maturely and politely.

If you can't do that, I highly suggest you do not hit that 'post reply' button.

If you say so. I say its an utter waste. With the exception of your doors tails, you have a beautiful car as is. That wide body is decadence at it's finest
