amuse body

sojirovskensi · 10-14-2012, 11:33 PM

Anyone has issues such as fitment with CAIs with amuse front body kits?

How much would front, sides, and rear cost to paint and install?
Thanks!

CAI's fit fine.

Authentic kit those pieces will probably run 6-8k purchased, painted, installed.
Replica kit would be 2-4k purchased, painted, installed.

A lot of things can change the cost of your question.

you're looking close to 4k for all amuse parts and paint for replicas

Well to give you an estimate i spent like 1.5k for amuse REAR and side skirts and then the cheapest body shop i found was 2k. so 3.5k just for the rear and sides. With front and wing id say its another 1.5k in labor.

Replicas are not really worth it IMO. You'll be spending what you saved in body shop labor to try and correct all the isues with FRP replicas.

Part of your higher cost was probably due to the 40th Anniversary paint match.

True, it's a 3 stage paint and they had to blend it in to the panels also. But the replica amuse rear i got in FRP also needed to be sanded smooth and to get all the little dimples and imperfections out which takes a lot of time.
