How I wish they would have painted it for me. Its sooo expensive here in NY/NJ.
I paid $700 just to have the side skirts painted and mounted (could have done it myself in retrospect).

You are going to love that mod PG, its going to look like a newer, better car.

in a couple of months I would see about adding some clear vinly for the front bumper.

PG, what did you pay for both. Did you get a discount for ordering both? I have been satisfied with DPS motorsports but they are a bit slow to ship...please post some pics when completed.

I paid $2185 for both. This price includes paint and "free" shipping to Ohio. I looked on ebay and even got the best price I could from my local dealer, but DPS seemed to be the lowest out there. Plus, I just am trusting the paint will be professional.

Anyone need a stock (mint, with 3M clearbra) 03 bumper cover??

Will a stock 03 Bumper cover fit a 2001 986??? If so, let me know and I'd be interested in it as my front bumper has a couple of blemishes that bother me. Thanks,

A stock 03 bumper will fit your 01 without any modifications. If your car is seal gray like his, it will be plug and play.

I think the price on the DPS website is for the entire Aero Kit II...which includes the rear trunk lid and spoiler. I only purchased the front bumper and side skirts.
