Doode, the Zefiro Turbo Edition is about a perfect fit. Put it on yourself and save a grand.

A grand?! No wonder mine sucked. *Story time* Again, Maaco blows and I had to take it back twice. But I had a Zekon and it fits terribly. I had to get creative and put washers on the back of my tail lights so it would stick out further than before. I have yet to do this to my headlights but I will have to do it to those as well. A very interesting experience.

Ok guys, my step-dad knew the owner so he figured he'd do a good job...but didn't. I got a new fender, body kit installed, and the whole car painted for $1,400.

Maaco is a car painting place that sucks.

Consider yourself lucky because that is one place you just do not want to get involved with. :roll:

Well, depends on what kind of paint you want and the like, but expect around 800 to a grand for painting everything.
