Default Body kits question

I bought my friend mugen kit (side, front, rear) and I was just wondering how much (estimated price) does it cost to install it on at a auto body shop? I try calling several at shop today but their close.

thanks

well just call back on monday or whenever they're open. The cost is going to vary depending on how much work is needed to make to the fiberglass and the quality of the paint and such. Some bodykits are better than others and dont need as much work to make the fit correctly. I would say to go to a reputable shop to get it done that way it doesnt look like crap in the end.

Here in College Point, Queens, NY I got a body kit for my old 240sx installed perfectly for $150. Front, Back, and Sides. They had to do some cutting, drilling, and heating to make it fit perfect. The kit was a nismo knock-off from ebay. They did a great job and it was worth the $150.
