Cost of Side Skirts Painted and Installed

For comparison purposes, how much should it cost for purchase, paint and installation of side skirts on a 2000 Carrera? Would you only go with Porsche parts or what aftermarket would you use?

about 500-600. depends on the after market. OEM is always better cheap since prep time is less.

Received mine today. $569 + shipping from Brandywine Porsche. They're starting on E-bay for that price. Givem' a call. I'm not paying for paint/install but it would probably go for a couple hundred I'd think.

Hey Hani. You're in the Flemington area aren't you? Any recommendations for painting in this area? I've used Holberts & Dave's Autobody in the past.

Thinking about getting a few things painted to spice up the car.

I'm definately interested. Let me know the bodyshop/contact info. I'm probably about to add an Aerokit Cup II to my car and I'll need to get it painted. I want the best possible job done.

I got my GT3 skirts shipped, painted and installed for about $1000. Got the painted skirts from Carnewal and had them installed at a local shop.

Carnewal has the Aerokit Cup II parts already painted? Maybe I'll order some of my parts from them since I can do the installation myself and it'll probably save on getting the parts painted Artic Silver.

Yeah Gert will prep and paint them for you. Paint match on my seal grey was excellent. He took extra care packaging and shipping them and they came over perfect.

For those saying 500-600, that is not for Porsche side skirts, is it? What after market skirts are you talking about?

Sitting in my garage, one set OEM Porsche Aero kit side skirts, $569.99 +$20 s/h from Brandywine Porsche as stated above. Point of interest though, when I first called them in regard to the E-bay ad one tech gave me $699; called back one hour later and the second tech said $569.99, the E-bay price. No need to bid as they said they had 10 units. I'll check the invoice to see if the tech's name is there.

Just got off the phone with Justin, he made a mistake and stated they were $599. He said they come into him at $559... better hurry because there were only a couple left. Just opened them, beautiful!
