Bart probablly 7-8k for the jams and everything. But since you hood, roof, and some other parts need to be painted nd its going on insurnce it would probblly be less.

I got mine on the day after we got em lol, threw em on the quarter windows.

The stripes are gone now, I just finished not too long ago, I just gotta get the excess glue off the hood tomorrow, any tips? I was just gonna use goo gone.

Goo gone would work, just make sure u dont leave it on too long, and give the car a good wash and wax after.

chances are you might need to buff the paint up too so you dont see the paint that was under the stripes.

DO NOT USE GOO GONE!!!! It will ruin your clear coat (ask me how i know). You can get some Meguiars ultimate compound and a nice towel and buff off the adhesive.
