Price for Painted Fender Arches

I have been looking at every threadon here and cant find an approximate price. People just say it is expensive to have it done. How much would it be to get them fully done to match the body (a good job). Also, how much would it be if I did the prep work myself?


Thanks.

I don't know about specific prices, but I've heard that its a pain-in-the-rear because they use some petroleum based material that supposedly "self-heals" itself whenever it get a minor scratch (probably by "weeping" some goo into the scratch)...

I got a price of $1400.00 to do all the black plastic on my MINI. They said it would require removing the front and rear bumbers.

I haven't ordered a car yet, but Mini Of Dallas quoted me $150-$300 per fender arch depending on the paint color.
