The custom shop at my ford dealer quoted me 1700$ to paint the whole Racer Boy kit, the 10 piece one.
I am going to check a couple other places to, and see how other shops prices compare.

I think any reputable shop (preferably custom or show) will charge anywhere from 1500 to 4500 dollars for everything from prep, paint, to install, and wet sanding and polishing. My kit being 14 pieces including installation and wetsanding, polishing, inc. painted stripes -top to bottom front to back was 4500 dollars. Varies greatly as you can see. It was worth every penny for me. (see gallery)

How much were the stripes painted on tho??? Im sure that boosted the cost quite a bit...im planning on gettin vinyl stripes simply cause of the cost difference. I love your car tho havent had a chance to look at your gallery but you've got the side port exhaust right do you like it and hows it sound???
