how hard is it to install an ass body kit

[00sleeper]

what kind of tools do you think you'd need and how long would it take?

An ass one?

You need a drill, some bolts/screws, and some time and cussing at getting the stock stuff off. I installed mine over the course of a few days when I got the time, in a parking lot, in the snow/hail/rain.

lol they ended up reattaching it but i have no feeling in it it's like my fingers asleep...kinda sucks. haha. and just real quick i could just bring it to a paint shop with my paint code and they could probably paint it for me. and off topic..sorry but to get flowmasters 80 exhaust for the dual pipes in the back, anyone know prices and how long that takes compared to taking to a shop or doing it yourself?

[bdyman]

i wouldnt do that, fit it first always, you have it painted you go to install the kit oh no why doesnt it fit, then your takin the car and the kit to the shop and spending more money
why not take the kit and the car to the shop and let them do it

duct tape

[darksobsession]

you have a cut off but reattached finger and you want an ass bodykit...?

let the shop do it. put the grills on first, though, if you're going to do it yourself. it might be a little more pita for them to paint, but it's easier than fitting it on, painting, then taking it off, putting the grills in and refitting.

i know cause i just had my AAS kit fitted and painted and now i'ma have to take it off to get the mesh in.

am I just missing something here or what ?

[DansGen1Alero]

bdyman is right, fir it first. I had no experience and I did mine myself.

remove the stock front and rear, match up the front bumper to get an idea of where you need to drill holes, (think 1/4 inch is good) your main holes up front will be the 2 that are at the top (you will see the tabs) make sure the sides are matched up right, may need a friend or 2 to hold sides as you mark your top 2 holes. drill them and once done put bumper back on then you can mark your holes for the side, there is one i think on each side on the front quarters I believe. be carefull becasue those hole are going to be close to the ege of the kit and will be very fragile. Once that is done the only thing left is to screw in the screws for the wheel wells, did i leave anything out anybody?

Back: similar to the front there will be i think like 5 push pop screws on the top you will want to measure, drill those match up, and then you have i think 1 again on each side for the rear quarters (again will be close to edge of kit and it will be fragile, then wheel well screws ( do not beleive you will need to predrill but def screw in before painted to get holes there.

Sides, lay sides over factory skirts and mark spots to drill ( i dont think predrilling is necessary for that either) now on one side i was able to screw the underneath to the underbody with one or 2 screws, but the other side I couldnt, yo may or may not want to do this, and if they corrected the problem with the skirts you may not be able to at all or may be able to on both side, as long as it is secure you shouldnt have a problem. i think driver side I needed to shave some of the front top of the side skirt to fit.

That is what I did and I am sure someone will tell me I did something wrong, but it worked for me, and looks good.

well..i'm putting the bodykit on hold right now and i know it's aas lol felt like a dumbass the first time i made the mistake. I just recently bought 18s and two of them turned out slightly bent so i have to figure this situation out first..eff'n craigslist, either it's gold or garbage with that website and it looks like i got stuck with the later.
