Hey guys:

I have a brand new set of Bushwackers for my '04 screw sitting in my garage waiting to be painted so I can install them. I just called a collision place to get an estimate. To prep, prime, paint and clearcoat, he wants $250. Is that outrageous or is that in the ballpark of what you're paying?

Thanks in advance....

That doesn't sound too bad, in other words I'd pay for that. I figured it would be higher due to sanding (if needed), etc. I want to paint my front and rear bumpers, ask him for a quote on that

 

$600.00 frist the have sandblast them then prime then spray then sand

 

That's ballpark...

 

Is that for front and rear? I'd do $500 done deal if I had the money atm.

 

Yes and thats a deal @ $600.00

 

I payed $150 sanded and painted, color matched perfect

 

Yeah but yours didn't start out Chrome.

 

how much should it cost me to paint my door handles da same color as my truck which is silver satin, is it better if i get them done by somebody else or myself, how much is da cost good

 

The problem with doing it yourself is that it wont match your vehicle. It is best to have it done at a shop where they can color match it to the rest of your vehicle. But it will be a whole lot cheaper doing it yourself. I would do it myself but then agoin i work at a body shop and get everything at cost.

Wow I didnt know Bushwacker made chrome fender flares!

 

Yeah that confused me, too!

 

I paid $500 to have my Lariet two toned Arizona Biege including the flairs. That also included pulling the bumpers and running boards all prep and etc.

 

And he said $600 was a deal, good lord. I have to say that is very high, not a "deal", sand blasting is very easy and definitely not time consuming. The painting process is not worth $600, to me.

 

My Ford dealer here in Canada charged me $150can to paint 4 fender flares.They are perfect.
