Ranges from $1200-1700 for a reputable shop.

Got my entire kit painted, sanded and polished for $1000. They were going to charge $400 for install, but I have experience, so I'm installing myself. I installed the rear bumper last night and fitment was perfect! The lines especially on the sides were tighter than the original oem bumper. The side skirts we almost a perfect fit as well. Pics to come this weekend.

400 for install??? It takes less than 20 minutes for each bumper to be installed. Its not rocket science, just a bunch of screws to remove and re-install.

P.S.: Still waiting for pics from the OP

20 mins??? that sounds about right thats gotta be a world record for sure! actually $300-500 is pretty typical for install of the entire kit

No update yet, I am still waiting on the Rieger rear bumper. Got a call today saying it arrived, but I needed to go clear it through Customs & Border Protection importing. Drove 1.5 hours to clear the paperwork today, only to find out they forgot to tell me I need my passport and license as form of ID!

This whole overseas importing has been an incredible hassle. My rear bumper is coming from Denmark, and so far it has taken 3 months and counting. Although I complained about it before, the 2 months it took to pre-order the M-tech rep front from Umnitza was actually pretty good.
