As some of you guys on here know, I have been collecting pieces all winter for my cars complete body overhaul. Included in the transformation are
-sideskirts
-rear add on
-new front bumper
-new front lip for the bumper
-m3 mirrors
and a repaint of my acs 3 piece spoiler.
That being said, I went over to wagon works to have an estimate written up and after about an hour or so got my total.............
$2508.86
I almost wanted to cry when they gave me that fiture. I understand that this is one of (if not the) best body shop in the MD/DC/VA area but that just sounds sooooo steep. I had been told that it would probably cost between 1000-1500 for all the above parts to be painted and installed... what do you guys think???
Here is a breakdown of the charges
Body labor (21.6 hours at 42 an hour) $907.20
Paint labor (20.9 hours at 42 an hour) $877.80
Paint supplies (20.9 hours at 28 an hour) $585.20
Sublet/misc. 17.00
Subtotal $24785.20
Sales tax 673.20 @ 5% $33.66
Grand total $2508.86

That is the total for paint and installation of the above parts... and, for all that money, they said they won't fix up my acs 3 piece spoiler so i would have to spend another 300 on top of that having a guy in MD do that for me. Is Wagon Works estimate even somewhat reasonable or is it just me?
