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.

Yeah I haven't had a problem with cracking either. I did like playr did and bolted it up first the fiber glassed it up then some bondo and your good to go. I drove my car all winter and nothing has happened at all, and thats with the doing donuts every couple days when it snows. If you do it right it wont crack just don't half a$$ it and you will be fine.
