just to clear some things up so your not discourged........it could cost you guys less. like i said if your not as anal as bdyman and I. Meaning my car is a show car, so we made sure there is no waves in it and the fitment was just like factory. the front bumper could be done with very minimal body work if needed and then scuffed and painted. the rear well the wrapping still would need to be fixed. the exhaust area doesn't really need to be done except maybe for the opening so it is an even curve. What I had bdyman do to the exhaust area was me being very anal about exactness of the OSV. the way yours is it is very close and looks fine.
Also I based the $3120 on 65/hour your guys shop may charge less and they may not put 48 hours in just the bumper. So please understand that the estimate, i gave of $5000, is to have the kit done to a show car level, which is what all I know how to do and same with bdyman.
Now if you guys could do the work yourself with the fitment and then have a shop just paint it then you will have a big savings.

Yeah but damnit I cant wait that long!!! LOL
Scott and chris are the reason I am thinking about this kit instead of all others. I would ONLY have chris do the work as we have already talked. But I want PROOF that he can do a good job,...(yeah right, I just wanna see more pics.) LOL
I already know that chris is the man when it comes to bodywork!

knowing what I know now, and having two of the four possible kits made for the alero...my first choice would be the razzi again, only molded to one piece, and the OSV as a very close toss-up...depending on who did the work for me...if it was Chris, it would be the OSV...if not, then it would be the Razzi the other two fiberglass kits..while one is hard to get, they both are too low for me.
