You have to take out the entire rear interior to install the kit then reassemble. Also, you have drill through the body and cut all 4 fenders for fitment. You won't ever be able to go back to stock.

Kit and parts: About $10k shipped
Installation and vinyl wrap: $6k

You can see the car on IG @baggedaholic
Thanks...appreciate it.

The car looks very nice - well done! You've likely already posted it elsewhere, but what size tires are you running?

I had a wide-bodied E36, and was generally familiar with the process, so I'd pegged it at ~$15K. What I didn't know is that the parts are dry CF, nor that dry CF drives the paint work cost higher.
