Default Two more weeks~~~My Re-Born LS!!

It has been almost 2 months since the hit & run accident. I went down to the body shop which I work for and the car will be ready next week. They told me a lot of details need to be done when putting on the aftermarket kits so it'll look very nice. I can finally go back to my LS-Bro. I waited almost 5 weeks for the WW Body kit.......I was kinda getting impatient, and the kit finally arrived last Friday.......Well, I got those 4 pcs. kit for $600, so I guess it was worth the wait. I also bought the Red/Clear Taillights and a set of the Blitz NUR-Spec Exhausts. Next month, I am planning to get the HRE 545R or 547R, 20x8.5/20x10.............Gotta find myself a LOADED girlfriend~~~
I'll post the pics. once the car is done.

I don't think I can do a whole car paint job for $1200. We got a mechanic who used to work for 20/20 AutoTech, and he does a very clean and nice job and he won many trophies and awards. If you want us to install the 4 pcs. kit and the spoiler and repaint the whole car(remove all moldings to get the best paint job done.) We charge around $3700. Repaint the whole car alone is $2500, and there are a lot of details needed for aftermarket kit(They don't fit perfectly)............If your friend can hook you up with a $1200 job(Which including install the kit and wing and the whole car paint job) I think it is impossible, look out for those very cheap shop that do a very bad job.....they'll paint your wheels and exhaust tips too. If you want a very nice job, let me know and bring your car down and we'll set a final price for you.

Default kenjitsu..

3700 sounds a lil too much.. i mean its vip, and its a lexus but i dont know man... the 1200 dollar job is not so bad.. he paints door jam, under the hood plus he take everything off.. and i dont think i can go wrong with 5 coats base and 5 coats clear.. 1200 is like a hook up price for me acutally.. that's not for everyone.. =) he does alot of show car's that's been in mag.. so i can trust this guy.. here is my friends car he did.. pretty clean
