I was at a body shop today to get an estimate on how much it would cost to get the upper cladding painted on my avalanche. The guy told me that for $700 he would paint the upper cladding (bedcovers not included), mirror backs, and the strip of plastic beneath the tailgate. Is that a good price?

Wow - if they stand behind the work with a good warranty and it will match the main color that's an INCREDIBLE price!

I agree with the big chief here. I would love to have my plastic painted. Mike.

very good deal if it includes sand, prime, and paint. i was quoted about $1800 awhile back.
Guys and Gals... I think he is talking about just the Sail Panels, Third Brake Assembly, Tool Boxs(coolers), and the Piece on the Tailgate top.
still 700 isn't bad for all that
