You don't need a shop to install the gfx kit unless you are going to drill into your stock bumper to install the rear. You can always istall youself with double-sided tape. The front and sides you can do by yourself in less than 30 minutes. With a friend's help, you can do it less time. Just my thooughts on trying to save you $$$.

Good luck and post some pics of the finished product.

Driving to Nashville and installing the better part of everything else minus rims, tires and springs. Aren't mounted and I don't have the rears (back ordered)

Shop painted front and installed for $150. I wanted it drilled and installed correct, not taped to my car. It's been on for a week, I'll clean it up and take some shots tomorrow.

^^^ Nice, Rashoodz.

What does your car even look like these days? Don't think I've seen any pics of it in a while.
