Hi, forum fellows. sorry if its a stupid quesiton but i want to know the general price range for painting and installing a Mkit on a e60. i know the price on the kit already since i think im going to order from umnitza but what about the cost for PAINTING and LABOUR fee for installing. I know prices vary in different shops/city . but if anyone knows the general price range, it'd be awesome.

note - if anyone lives in vancouver BC area and know about the price range here, it'd be great

Thanks very much

That's tough man, you would have to certainly call around some body shops and get estimates or ask some people local to your area. Like you said in your post the prices really do range way too much from region to region. For example I got my entire kit painted for around $1200 in Texas when the same thing in some areas of NY would cost around $2k.

local shop here will do it for $850 for all 4 pieces - if you want, we can have it pre-painted for you.
There are however very big factors in going this direction. Please give us a call for this.

Very easy actually - you can send us a painted piece off the car - one person is planning on sending his painted reflectors to us for color matching (along with the paint code, year and mileage of the car).
