Has anyone else had this done and if so, what did you pay for the work?
I have an hard time paying that much for those tiny pieces, but I really want this done…
That's not far off what I would have guessed the price to be. In addition to the removal and installation, there is also prep work and if done properly, time needs to be given to wet sanding and smoothing out the paint/clearcoat so you don't have orange peel. Even small jobs can be pricey when you realize exactly how much labor is involved!
