I was tempted to tell them that Rosati's wasn't that great.

And it's really expensive besides that!

Hey - I'm from the east coast where thin crust is still king. That being said, if I want deepdish, I'll order from Giordanos or Ginos...

The stock aero package should be able to be installed by the dealer.

$500! That's crazy...not that I have anything to compare it to - but that sure sounds like a lot for OEM bolt on parts install...

true.

my salesperson at autobarn evanston offered to do it for $200--i had to ask him twice about the price just to make sure, but he was also sales and not service and this was last year.

i had mine installed recently at liberty auto city in libertyville. there was a snafu in communication where they only did the mudflaps. they didn't even open the boxes containing my side flares and front dam inside my car. got there at 8am and thought i was leaving at noon. i finally left at 5pm but i only got charged the labor for the mudflaps.

I would think any decent body shop could do this without much trouble. I've had decent luck with white eagle auto body in naperville.

Are they painted already??? I am assuming they are... Is it the front lip, side flares, rear mud gaurds and spoiler??? They aren't hard to install, it is time consuming for perfection. All you need is some basic tools and follow the instructions... save you lots of money. Spoikler would be the only thing to stress but usually when you purchase the OEM spoiler and aero package they have layouts where everything should be drilled and clipped.

I installed my front mud gaurds took me a half an hour, a cut hear and there, a couple screws and chika bow wow lol
