Front lip install price?

Hey everyone,

I'm thinking about getting a front lip installed. any idea how much it should generally cost in the LA area? And does anyone have any recommended shops that aren't too far from West LA? Thanks!

I would... if I didn't suck at anything that requires a minimal level of skill. I tried to do vinyl wrap on my rocker panels once... and it went terribly. haha

Wow! Didn't know they closed.

Maybe try Trininty. I've had suspension work done by them recently. Thus far, no complaints.

Trinity is located in OC. Yelp info...

https://www.yelp.com/biz/trinity-autosport-anaheim-2

They are a participating vendor on this forum. My contact there is Joe.

https://www.trinityautosport.com

If you come down, hit me up. We can meet for coffee.

I agree with other members

The forums and its members provide a Butt load of great info. I installed my front spoiler after doing my research on the forums and it turned out great! The satisfaction of installing something yourself makes you appreciate your ride even more. A front spoiler is probably one of th best diy projects. Plan for enough time to do the project and take your time.
If you screw up a front spoiler it won’t be as noticeable and heck try it again!

Did you ever get this lip installed? Just had mine partially fall off, so looking for another shop to re-enforce it without charging an arm and a leg.

not yet. doesn't seem to be a shop near me that'll do it for a reasonable price. (under $100)

What lip? Keep in mind it's about a 2 hour job, so if labor is at minimum $50/hour, then you're looking at least $100 minimum....

Honestly, do it yourself. I've done mine 3 times now and it's easy.
