Default 2006 mustang aftermarket body kits

most of you probably know this but to those who don't i'd like to add some comments about the kits for the new 05 mustang model (to present) i got a street scene body kit, rear lip and front fascia, wing, etc,.. i wanted to get them installed and painted, i looked around my town to different body shops and they all quoted me around 600 bucks, one place even quoted me around 700,.. ridiculous i know,.. i even told them i had the parts all they had to do was install and paint,.. most places didn't want to deal with aftermarket anything cus of the fit, they didn't want to do the job cus they were afraid it wouldn't fit right,... untill a friend told me about earl sheib,.. this place only wanted 3 bills for the same job!!!! and i was completely satisfied,, they work with after market stuff and your car is ready no later then two days, which other places would have taken about a week to complete, .......think about it 700 dollars down the drain, 1 week to wait, plus not even knowing if they fit the damn things correctly,.. versus 300 dollars, perfect fit and color, and ready in about 2 days,.... my point exactly,... go to these places to get your kits installed if you don't want to do it yourself (not reccomended to do so),.. MACCO, and Earl Sheib

Anyone remember back far enough on Earl's commercials in the 70's "Any car, any color for 49.95!"

I've always heard that MACCO and Earl Sheib used a really thin paint and it didn't hold up very well. On a lot of aftermarket parts, the sanding has got to be done extra good to prevent any dimples. A lot of times, it has to be done several times before it is right. That is the reason the a lot of body shops charge more.
