I paid 2400 painted and installed for pre-LCI OEM kit not too long ago on my old E60.

I bought the kit for $800 but I need to paint and mount it. There's a million places here in Miami but not sure of which will do a good job without ripping me off. Miami is known for that. Lol

Since prices are all over the place, why don't you get a few estimates where you are because none of the board members are going to paint it.

Gotten a couple of prices. And finally found a guy who does body work for one of the most known exotic dealers here in Miami (The Collection) and he's only charging me $600 compared to the other ridiciulous quotes I got in other places. So I guess I'm going to go with him. Thanks for the help.
