Vorsteiner GTRS3 Widebody Kit for e92 M3

Anyone know a reputable shop to install/paint a Vorsteiner Widebody GTRS3 kit in the NJ/NY area?

I've seen a few done, and I have a kit lined up for purchase... just trying to get a feeler on which shops in the area might have done this install already so I can see their work and get a quote.

Thanks!

Martino Auto Concepts. The best shop around here imo but pricey.

Thanks guys, so far I've gotten 4 quotes:

Martino said anywhere between 15k and 40k.. lol, but their work speaks for itself.

Xclusv came in at 12k

Milan Auto Painters in Clifton NJ- 9k

Azevedo Motorsports- Linden NJ- 8k

Yea I think that's about right.. every shop I talked to so far has done wide body kits before, and even though Vorsteiner is excellent quality, it's still going to require a lot of hours/customization to get that perfect fitment..

Debating Frozen White, Sakhir Orange, I was hoping the install would be more toward 5k but I guess there's a reason why we don't see many on the road ,

the kit is available on Vivid Racing - listed at $6645.00 http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/v...-p-153034.html

Get quotes to keep your color. It will be way cheaper and look better. To do a proper color change its $$$$

I have a guy here in the Bronx that will do a great job, has experience, tracks his race car and isn't shady. Full color change is $$$$ but must be done right..engine bay and all..requires the motor to come out. Willing to go through that? Why not just save some $$..mock the kit up..cut the fenders yourself, do most of the labor and have the shop install and blend. Ever consider wrapping the car? I do that with my guy here in Yonkers

Yea. Wrapping the car after the install will save a fair amount of money and you'll have more color options probably.

What's the name of the shop? I'd definitely like to see some of his work and where he's at with pricing, keeping the car Alpine White.

Is that ass worth 15k...
