What did you pay for ground effects and how much to paint them?W

When I get my Camaro out of storage next spring I am thinking of getting the ground effects package added to my 2011 Synergy Green 2SS. I have been quoted a price of 1950 for the parts. Has anyone been able to find a beter price? I also want to paint them to match the Synergy Green on the rest of the car, so anyone that has got the ground effects package what did it cost you to get it painted. Does the 1950 include the cost of instalation? Thanks for any help you can give me.

i just bought a new GM's GFX kit from someone on the forum for $1350.

$1900 sounds like a lot man. don't buy it from the dealership, look around here on the forum, there are plenty of opportunities to buy the kit for way less then 1900. it took me about 8 months but i was finally able to purchase the kit at a reasonable price.

good luck

I agree on guessing around 2k, but they do look very nice

I found mine on Craig s List. The guy I bought them from totaled his car and wanted to get rid of them. Less than half price with a reasonable price for paint and self install. I would say look around.

Can't wait to see them on Dave! If you need the name of a great painter let me know. He is in Waupun and he did the stripes on my car plus did a resto on a 70 Corvette and a 53 Ford F100 for me in the past. Just let me know if you need a name and number.

I just saw that on Black Friday chevypartsplus.com had the ground effects on sale for 1560. The one we looked had 2265 on the window sticker for the ground effects. That was for the parts, paint and instulation. Tomorrow I am going to call my dealer and see what he can get it for me. If he says he can do it for under 1900, I think I am going to tell him to order it. Or does anyone know where I can get it for less.
