Spraying about £100 .. and a few hours fitting .. I'd say £150 all in .. but depends on your colour.

And posting something @ 8pm and then not having a reply @ 10am .. don't worry .. most people sneek on here while at work. Just chill.

well said that man :)

Also there are 2 ways in which side skirts can be fitted...

method 1

Side skirts cut and shut to fit, holes drilled in the top of sill and bolted together at either end of the arch. Looks ok but your left with holes in the top of the sill which are usually held on by no more then self tapping screws.

method 2

The fitter should be skilled in the art of fibreglassing and will make up a sill plate mould behind the skirts which will fit underneath on your sills like a glove, this can be sealed with tiger seal or similiar and bolted either end of the arch. The top of the skirt will fit flush to the top of the sill and no nasty self tapping screws required.

Personally from past experience I'd go with method 2, just incase you want to remove the skirts for any reason and your not left with holes in the top of the sill to cover up and the fitment is soo much better!

As Bibbs says around £100 for spraying depending on the paint code, then around £50-£100 for fitting.
