hi my brother owns a 1.2 vauxhall corsa and is getting a bodykit for it within the next week or so, i was wondering if anyone cud let us kno where we can get it fitted (around kent area) and how much it would cost for it to be fitted and painted? also i was wondering how much the insurance would go up?

Any Help Would Be Great As We Are Totaly Lost!

thanx

thanks mate 200 not bad he has been told by the bloke he is buying it off that he can get it sprayed for him for 60 because he knows someone who will do it but will he need to go to a body shop to get the sides fitted

yeah as si says have a gander threw yellow pages and have a phone around etc.

as for insurance probably 10/20% increase but it depends which insurance company your with.

My insurance went up by almost 20% when i declared after market alloys, irmscher body kit & lowered suspension.

As for bodyshops, dont just go with the cheapest, get some recomendations from people in your area & check out the standard of their work first. I\'ve just paid Â£1100 for a complete respray on my car (in same colour). Not the cheapest around although I\'ve come across a lot more expensive too. But the quality of the finish is excellent, not a single run or mark in it & they even redid the sideskirts 3 times as they werent happy with the finish the first 2 atempts.
