Hello guys am new here, and am not sure if this is the right section to post this... but anyways i just purchased a mtech kit for my 550 and i have been looking around for a shop to paint and install it but cant really find any that deals with aftermarket stuff (except one but they over priced me with a quote of $1600)... so if any of you knows any body shop around here that deals with this kinda stuff please let me know, Thanks in advance!

Mobile Addictions in Staten Island. Ask to speak with James, he is the owner of the shop. They do great work and just moved into a new huge building. They have done everything on my car. (M5tech kit included)

Thanks for your reply man. Is that your 535 on their website gallery ? because that carbon interior looks sick. Anyways am going to probably just drive by and check it out one of this days when this snow gets removed lol, by the way how much did they charge you on your mtech ?

Yes that is my car. I believe I paid somewhere around $400 painted/installed for my front bumper done. I had a bunch of other stuff done so I don't recall exactly how much. But they are a top notch shop, just moved to a huge new place.

I just had my front/rear/sides painted/installed for $1000. $1600 is a bit much.

Nobody said it cost that much, plus you get what you pay for. I only had front/sides done in a package with other stuff including customizing my front bumper for laser jammer heads, motorized front plate, and nightvision. I believe it came to about $400 for the front maybe $150-$200 sides.

Also MAC is a great shop too. I personally can't vouch for them, but I can for MA, so I guess it just comes down to how far you want to drive. You will not be disappointed by either.

Yeah i think am just going to stick to MA, it looks like they deal with high exotic cars too and by seeing their work on their website it looks really proffesional. i just spoke to james as you told me to, he quoted me 1000 for everything which is a great price, so now just gotta wait until this snow melts lol

Haha james is a great dude...tell him I (Raj) referred you, who knows maybe he will hook you with something special. He has done work on all my BMWs (x5, 645cic, 325xi, and 535)

Also they are top notch in terms of audio/visual stuff, maybe look into a system too!? They did my system 2 12" JL's and a JL 500/1 amp ported through my ski pass and holy fack my hair moves.
