An example, the aero kit job that I just did, their quote for parts, paint and fitting came in around $5600. My completed job came in at less than $3K with the combination of sourcing parts from DPS, having them do the painting, me fitting them bumper and Holberts doing the side skirts.

I am very inclined toward the Rennlist plate (show some support) which I might get, at this stage I have a simple thin-framed black metal plate, which is very clean and simple, and matches the black 'Carrera' logo on the back of the car.

Hi, I have an arctic silver car and chrome frames looks great with no writing. It really sets off the exhaust tips and the one i have is upscale with snap on covers for the screws. Try it out!
