i wanted to do this too for the longest time. what can i expect to pay to have it like the pic above (leaving the L only), and what type of shop usually does this.??
I'm doing at my bodyshop, welding the wholes, refinishing and repainting the trunk cant be more them $550 - $650. MAKE SURE that the person doing it just doesn’t splatter some bondo and send it because it will crack after hitting the trunk closed a few times, the holes have to be welded carefully for strength.
I am planning some more suddle mods, lets see how it goes... will send pics w/ more progress...
Repainting a complete trunk with good quality paint that will actually match the car, welding the wholes shut, smoothing out, papering the whole vehicle, polishing the piece and backing up your service for any deffects for $550 sounds honest.
We quoted a 07 IS black to remove logos for $300 since it was a non metalic color and only the half under the light would be painted and the customer took it somewhere else well we ended up redoing the job and the customer paid the $200 the other guy paid PLUS our price. Sometimes cheaper is not better.
