Hey Guys,

I was thinking about buying the JCW aerokit's sideskirts as seperate items and then getting them painted by a third party body shop and installing them myself. My question is, how much do you think a decent job would cost (by decent I mean a paint job that matches the rest of the car and will last).

Thanks,

Usman

 

dont you order them in the color of your car?!

 

If you cant order them the color of the car, I'de recommend a price between $300, and $700, if its just the side skirts... full car would be 2k-3k

 

I don't think you can order them in the color of your car, especially if you have mellow yellow, because there are 4 variations of it. When my dad got the aero kit on his, they painted it at the body shop...kit, painting and install cost about $2800 I think.

 

holy ***** 2800 $ for a painted/installed a body kit?

 

Actually, I think it was only around $2500 for everything. The aero kit costs around $1600, then it has to be painted and installed.

 

how much does the sideskirts cost without installation?

 

I heard from someone who did just this, that it costs a few hundred bucks. I interpreted that to mean approx. $300.

 

I'm pretty sure the sideskirts by themselves costs around $700. I saw that on somebody's website.

btw just the side sills are 800 off of outmotoring http://www.outmotoring.com/mini-coop...de_skirts.html

 

they are 275 each from the dealer, primed, and ready to be painted

 

Morristown sells them for $700 including mounting parts.

 

would be very interested in where you found them for 275

 

momentum bmw/mini-houston,tx

 

...beware, there are multiple parts to each side....an outer shell, an inner shell as well as 4 individual black vent inserts per side, plus hardware and snaps ....I doubt 275 per side is a complete price....

.....they have obviously mis-quoted or don't understand what parts are involved in the swap (most likely).

We do (I personally installed them) and have them on our project R56:

I wrote to Morristown about just the front apron and never got the answer. How much is the front apron only, unpainted?
