It's worth it though. I understand the desire to get the best price, but they do EXCELLENT work.

just wait for the next group buy, maybe if you get like 30 people again sometime this year, they would do it...if not, oh well

150 is kind of steep...i'd rather spend it on suspension, like a sway bar or something

Is that $150 each or per side?

I'd go in on a group buy. I really want them painted, but I want them done right.

i got a friend that can do it for 100 buck any color... and you dont even have to take off your side skirts.... we have unpainted ones we can paint .... any color.....

the way it works.... send your color code and money and well paint a set of side skirts... you pick up install side skirts and leave your unpainted ones for the next customer...

2 people on the board have used my friend and they like it, good match and even textured to prevent rock chips better..

pm me if your intrested....

edgar,

I'm going to Master's Paint this afternoon to get mine painted for $80 for both. No group buy just a great deal. He's located in hayward, I'll post results when I get them back

The lowest we can go is $120.00 for the pair. There is alot of work that goes into these sides. We first degreese them just incase there is some oils on them, secondly, we sand them with 3 different grits of sand paper, then we primer them, then we have to wet sand them to make them smooth. after all that we can finally paint them to match your car. Sorry for those of you that missed the group buy. $120.00 is still a great deal for all the work that goes into them.

$100 for two sideskirts is very good! But if all else fails, go to La Bay Autobody in Burlingame. George is a great guy and paints everything for me.

Go to Creative Kustoms!!!

You're relatively close to Creative Kustoms and they do really good work. There's folks here who can vouch for them, including me . It's too bad you missed out on the deal, but still though...what they're quoting is a good price, comparatively. Unless you find someone else who's cheaper and can provide the same quality go to Creative Kustoms...good people and excellent work

I have a hook up a really nice guy that paints my stuff up in Milpidas, he had painted my OEM rear lip and had done a great job on it. I can probably have a pair of side skirts done for you guys for maybe about 110 or so have to ask but im thinking around that price let me know who is intrested and I will find out the details for you all, just let me know though through e-mail.

I can't get mine done for at least a couple months. Will it still be this price if I mention I-Club?

Yes, we can help you take off your side skirts. It only takes about 5 minutes at the most.
