you can get free estimates at shops around your area

 

[GreenTeggy]

but that requires effort!!! lol I don't know any shops near me that do eblem shaving! did you do yours?

 

[G3GirL]

when i got my first car (my rsx) i was scared to touch it and paid 50 to get it done by a local body shop. but if your tryin to get the holes and what not shaved, its gunna run you considerably more obviously...

 

[Campanelli]

Your going to have to go around to shops or call because its not the same every place

Not much if you do it yourself. It takes about 2 seconds to pop the emblem off but then the complicated part is doing a quality job on filling in the holes and painting the remainder.

bondo/metal what ever you want

Cheapest method...pop the emblem off, cover the holes with color-matched vinyl. Cost: $5

Middle method...buy an aftermarket OEM-style bumper. No holes or INTEGRA on front of these...but you risk fitment issues. Cost:$100-120

Most expensive method...pop the emblem off, weld fresh metal in place of holes, repaint bumper cover. Cost:$200-300


Obviously choice #3 is the correct way to go...anything else is just half-assed or takes away from the car.

man, i got mine shaved for free by some punks. i had mine done when the car was painted, like an extra $75 or something

 

[BrokenTalon27]

i did the front, my friend did the rear.

So you're saying you shaved your front, but your friend shaved your rear? :lol: Did you not have a mirror for the rear or you're just not that flexible? jk jk

Remember, a guy can make most anything into a double entendre, but try not to make it TOO awfully easy.

personally id look up how to do it on google or ask someone so it saves you some money
