they are 19s.... brand new tires on front. Rears will need to be replaced sometime between now and next summer. Only been curbed ONCE. ( i was royally pissed when i did it too after 14+ hour drive i was soo tired the ****ty curb got me)

Had a quote around here to repair the curbage (although not noticeable at all i am freakin meticulous)

Paint cost depends on painter, paint used, prep involved, etc. No way to really guess so I wouldn't have bothered before you revealed $700, but it is a good looker.

wow thats cheap! Look out though, we delt with a El Camino that was bought over the internet and the customer had no idea what he was buying when it started rusting he brought it in and one of our body guys masked off the area he was working on and when he peeled the tape off the clear coat came off with it. So i must say, don't stick tape on it!

Normal rate, They also have a deal going on right now 150 off the grade paint job i got.

just remove your headlights side markers and tails yourself, search long and hard for all the dents or youll miss 2-3 like me.

if you dont remove everything yourself they just tape over it and spray
