price check...paint and badging

[BEARS-SS]

So, my vision has cleared. I'm going to be getting the stock 20's painted matte black, the side skirts painted IOM, rear skirting partially IOM (with the chrome squares painted IOM), replacing the tail-light bezels IOM, de-badge/re-badge in IOM over black.

I have stopped at a couple places to get a price-check on the wheels, and the lowest I've found is 680-980 (yes that was the actual "quote"), but now that I want some color matching I'm worried. Should I take it to the dealer to get painted (for a little more $$$), or trust a colision center to color match the IOM?

What would be a good price for side skirts, rear skirting, and wheels?

I'm going to paint mine and it will be around $50 a wheel. Same place quoted my buddy $100 a wheel to paint behind the spokes same color as his stripes because of the time to tape each wheel.

As for powdercoated, everyone does it and it is not as smooth as paint. Yes stronger but we have painted rims now from the factory.

You should be under a grand for everything you want done.

I had my heritage grill painted, fog lights filled in smoothed and painted, rear strip between tail lights painted, inside the truck painted, intake box painted, radiator cover painted, tail light bezels painted, shark fin painted, all tails and side markers painted with black candy and both bow ties painted. They removed and reinstalled all (except engine stuff). Can't say how much (they read the board) but he said it should have cost around a grand for all that.
