So I ended up doing the rear and sides this weekend with a friend. Wasn't to bad, the rear took a while to figure out thou. I think Im going to go to a body shop to get my trunk swapped and my coilovers swapped, and I still need to get my front bumper painted.
I talked to a body shop about getting my front bumper painted and they want to charge me $250 to strip and refinish and then $300 to paint. Seems like a lot!! What do you guys think?
Also how much should I expect to pay to get my coilover's and stock shocks swapped? Ive read thats its a DIY thing but I really dont want to mess with the suspension.
