honestly, its not gonna be cheap. either its gonna be poor quailty, and cost a lot of money to repair, and make it fit better, or you are going to spend more money on a quailty product. Also, paint isnt cheap either. better to do things correctly once, then to do it half-assed several times to make it look good.

Save your money and go for quality. You'll spend more on a "cheap" kit at the body shop than you will a better quality kit. And please, ignore those who might say "hey man just paint it and do the body work yourself and save some money!!!". if you don't know what you're doing and don't have the training, it's not going to turn out right.

Example: You need surgery for your knee. Who do you think is going to do a better job:

Person 1: Absolutely no training whatsoever in the medical field, but has disected a frog, sheep's eye and a cat in high school

Person 2: YEARS spent in medical training, with a Doctorate in joint type surgical stuff

(I know nothing about names of special degrees for this stuff... just giving an example)

Person 1 is not going to do a good job... no matter how many books they read or people they talk to. You're not going to get the same quality as someone who's trained in the field. (Body work and paint IS harder and takes more skill to do well than most people think)


Just throwing that extra bit in there as food for thought. Save your money up and do it right, you'll be happier in the end
