Body Kit install and Paint
 
Does this sound right in price? I called a body kit shop that does a ton of high end vechiles in sac called TNT Auto Body - couldn't find any bad reviews. I was told $700 to paint and install a full Amuse 370z Vestito aero kit and if I didn't like how it looked they would refund me my money.... Sounds way too low for me. So I went to there shop and I saw tons of GT-R's, High end M's, and other expensive cars.

That is very cheap.

It is cheap. Unless they figured out a way to pay their employees nothing. I paid $700 for my Stillen fascia alone that included prep and paint. Most of the time you get what you pay for.

Just remember that just because they have high-end cars on the lot doesn't mean they'll treat your as such. Those guys are getting charged much, much more than you are for a lot less. Just saying. But if they said they'd refund the money if you didn't like it then I see almost no harm in letting them try. Just don't expect perfection.

Its cheap, bring your own rotary to make matt go shiney..

700 for painting is reasonable, but include putting on is cheap, that should be around 200$ more. Plus fixing fitting will cost more than 400-500.

Be carefull on the paint, i bring it to a shop that do aftermarket part, they will treat your car like :mad: (i think most of shop like that, unless that is a luxury shop that have lambo :bowrofl:). Luckily they allow me to stay while they work, so i give them a hand and i prevent them from scratch my car paint :bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl:.

If it is authentic amuse (1500$ ++) you dont need to do anything, just snap in and paint it. mine is rep (700$) so we have to fix FRP, cost 200$, plus 350$. The paint is not good as i expected, but anyway the nissan 370z factory paint is already bad, so i got nothing to comment :roflpuke2::roflpuke2:

I would not put $700 paint job on my $4000 amuse kit if I were you

If you are willing to travel to San Jose, I know a good shop down here. TNT Autobody is a reputable place - I know they did a lot of work on Calvin's Z ( http://www.the370z.com/members-370z-...z-journal.html) but from what I've heard they no longer do much aftermarket work? I may be wrong on this but you should try to find some eastbay locals to vouch for them.

TNT Auto Body - Sacramento, CA | Yelp
4.5/5 stars on yelp, and their previous customer comments seems pretty confident about this shop. If they offered you a satisfaction guarantee or full refund, I don't see why not, make sure get that on writing or recorded in case **** happens.

he gave it to me in writing and signed a contract about if I don't like it he will refund my money, so I'ma give them a shot. Also he signed the part if I don't like it he will be me a new Amuse body kit. SOOO I think i can trust them. Thanks!
