Hey guys, i was wondering how much it would cost to mold a body kit onto the car, or if anyone in south florida knows how to do it, or how hard is it to do? Because my friend (punch) has a friend who will paint my car for $1200, but to do the molding and everything he said $2500, im thinkin I could probably do it myself, from what i hear its not that hard, i just need some advice/help from some1 who knows what there doing. Thanks guys.

eh i have/had a fully molded kit and i ran into a few curbs ect....stepped on my rear bumper ect...... never cracked why? because i have goo mounting so that it won't move.....imo its good to rivet the bodykit inplace and then mold you never use just a mold to hold a kit on as most people know.........but i mean i havn't experience a crack yet so we'll see
