well i was wondering about how much does it cost to get a full body kit painted and mounted. also is there anywhere that you can buy prepainted body kits.

Cost will depend on the quality of the kit and how it fits. If it needs a lot of work then you will pay $$$$.

The mazdaspeed kit comes painted and has perfect fitment.

I believe you order the rmagic lip kit painted as well.

Price will usually depend on shops. There is no set price. Some shops will charge more, and some shops will charge less.

your going to pay a good bit to get a kit fitted , block sanded and prepped properly. my 2 suggestions are dont buy a cheap knock off kit and dont take your car to the lowest bidder.

Unless you like paying twice. One to get it done the first time, and twice to get it done right.

the only reason i say dont buy a cheap kit is because with my experiance working in a body shop for years is that a cheap kit takes more work to get it to fit correctly. the money you will spend to get it that way will be about the same cost as buying a nice kit, not to mention getting it painted...just make sure its done right the first time.
