How much would this cost? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Jtmurillo · 08-31-2020, 07:16 PM

Getting some work done on my car. I have supplied a body shop with the following for them to paint and install. What would be a fair price to have this done?

IVS Havoc rear diffuser: Paint outside larger piece (that goes around exhaust tips) in satin black. Paint inside smaller piece gloss black to match car.

OEM ZL1 front bumper conversion kit (everything included): paint gloss black to match car. Paint plastic pieces with satin black to prevent fade.

OEM ZL1 Side rocker: Paint top gloss black to match car and the lower plastic section satin black

Anvil Auto rear notch spoiler: paint gloss black to match car. owner said block sanding and prepping prior to paint may be needed.

Thanks!

Shop quoted me $725 cash out the door for just painting the bumper and installing which I thought was fair as I’ve heard just paint for the bumper is $400 or maybe even a little more. So $325 to install was well worth it to me. But then I decided to just go all out and I ordered the side rockers, spoiler, and rear diffuser. I am meeting with the shop tomorrow to go over everything with them (they have all the parts) and to make sure we are on the same page about what I want painted what colors (between satin black and gloss black).

Here in NY that's easily $1500-2000 all day.

I would say that's fair, maybe as high as $700. This is assuming minimal prep or repair work needs to be done. Body/Paint shop prices can vary dramatically based on region.

Adding installation to all of this changes things a bit of course. But that should alleviate any fitment issues you may run into afterwards.

With paint and install for all that I would say this as well.

Going to vary from location and shop. Could be a small variation or a huge one. To have the parts painted here would be around 800-1000 with minimal prep. That does not include installation

Going from all the pieces I had painted on my Camaro by my shop and their labor prices plus, having my friend and his shop do the install, because I trusted him more for that part of it, my paint shop though does great work, I would say about the same as mentioned above. ^^^^^

Just went to the shop, went through everything with them and got the quote. When they put it into their system it popped up as $2,700 with all the prep, paint, and installation. We agreed to $2,250 cash for everything. Id say this is more than fair as they are going to be painting every single piece of plastic on the front bumper (light bezels, upper grill, lower grill, lower spoiler) as well as the bottom part of the side rocker in satin black.

That's a good deal for all that painting. You did good.

Thank you! It’ll be done sometime next week. I’ll update the post with some before and after pictures!

i don't want to be a party pooper but you have to remove the back bumper to replace the back up bulbs i would not pay 325 for that to be done. just me but i would save on labor and do the removal and install of bumpers myself and i would also do my own side skirts.i get it some people don't have a place or the tools but if yo do than do it yourself.the rear is simple.

Yeah I’ve watched some videos. Not too worried about the savings on that. Would much rather just have someone else do it and be able to pick it up all done and ready to go!
