install bodykit??

[KenKaniff]

does anyone have an idea of what it costs to install a body kit? not the kit itself but how much the installation would be

 

[Desslok]

Is it painted? Please tell me it is.

Just to install would be around 200 give or take to do it right and not have any gaps.

 

[HiTek21]

can always go cheap and do it yourself. if u dont have the tools ask a friend who does

 

[KenKaniff]

haha. True. should only cost about 200~250 to get it installed, depending on the kit and the car. Is it just a front end kit? or a full body kit or what?

 

[DougK62]

Installation price for a kit is going to vary wildly based on several factors like the kit finish, car, kit complexity, etc.

We need more details to give an estimate.

And please use real words - "nething" and "sum1" are hard to read quickly

yea... dosen't really take much more time to type the words out....my $.02

If it's a WW kit they have the exact instructions on how to install it on there website, isn't hard to do long as you know somthing about cars and can read.

Whatever you do, for sake of everyone that drives an import (I'm assumming it is), get it painted before you drive it, please.

[JustinSampson]

i thought black widow was the name of the company?

 

[Rallispec]

this one?

 

[JustinSampson]

Oh, maybe it is. Never heard of it though. I thought Black Widow it was a style (RS Racing, Defender, Wide Mouth, Shogun, etc.). Should come/have came with instructions anyway.

No one here can tell you what it's going to cost, try asking a local shop. In places like Florda and California cost a lot more then up here (higher demand in those areas). Plus one shop might cost twice what another one will.

 

[Rallispec]

i had never heard of them before either. not a bad looking kit though.

Or buy it in flat black. Then you could just pretend it's carbon fiber.

fiberglass kits = suck
they just aren't durable enough from what I hear.

especially for me since I have to deal with colorado winters...I'll probably get an OEM body kit for my prelude.

some are better than others.. i think as long as you dont torture your car and run into curbs and stuff.. you *should* be fine with a carbon fiber kit.

black widow is the name of the company, many companies make black widow style kits though.
