There was some minor repairs as far as stress cracks and rock chips but aside from that the prep went very smooth and took about 3 weeks.
The cost all said and done was around 6100.00 if im not mistakin.

Brad 6100.00 or less ???? Let us all know, thanks for posting this info. We all need to know who does great work and who does not. And for 6100.00 this is CHEAP for this high quality of work and fitment and finish.

Looks like there's a great vendor on the forum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
