What does everyone think about this mod?

 

I think they're great. I ordered a set almost 3 months ago but I'm finally getting around to having them put on next week.

 

Have you found any pics of them installed on a black coupe?

 

No but I'll be able to show you some in about a week and a half.

 

Dealer wants to charge me 3300 installed and painted. Does that sound about right?

 

It's a touch high, but close. I paid around $1150 for the skirts plus $1900 painting/installation.

 

Just curious...

Why would you go to a dealer for something like this? Wouldn't a local, competent body shop be able to do it for you for a lot less? After all, installation can't be rocket science, and you know the dealer isn't going to do the painting themselves, are they?

 

definitely go for them, absolutely looks amazing

 

Actually the dealer sends them out to get painted and then installs.

Usually I would tackle something like this myself, but being an Aston, I am a littler nervous about screwing something up.

 

Well, if you're paying the dealer $3300 you are getting ripped off royally. Like I said, find a competent, trustworthy body shop and have them do the whole job, unless they tell you they can't for some reason (but I highly doubt that).

I'd find it hard to believe that a bodyshop would charge you more than $1500 to paint and install 2 side skirts.

 

Alright, mine are getting put on next week too. Hope they look good.

I have the lowering springs sitting in my garage and I was thinking about putting those on at the same time.

 

Funny...my springs are in my garage as well and will probably go on at the same time, too. H&R?

 

Yep, H&R, got them from another board member who decided to go with the AM kit.

BTW, I was able to get the dealer to knock down a good chunk of the price for the skirts, paint, and install.

 

How much are you paying?
