This a good deal?

that is not a good deal at all.
CAI can be installed in roughly 2 hours. so $160 for Richmond, BC shop rate.
There are local Vancouver folks who does headlight stuff for $100 (for painting inner chrome to black) ish with warranty.
Total is $260.
or is $800 including the intake's price? then that makes sense.

do you recommend any places? i was thinking about getting G3s done/a tune/paint sport rims gun metal or something along the lines of that. I was thinking SR auto but i heard they charge a lot but does a very good job.

Nope intakes already purchased, might have to check into who does the headlights in Vancouver in the summer.

I guess $225 at dealership not bad since it will cost me at least $70 in gas to get to Richmond and back.

If you want to have someone else to do them for you, go to either AJ racing or drivehard and say Alex with 1M sent you.

If you want to save some $$$,
I would bring rims to a sandblasters then to a powder coating place.
Intakes, i would have them installed by one of two mentioned above.
You can save few hundred bucks with some effort.
