do it your self .. take the time learn it and get the self satisfaction of saying its your own work. dont let a shop charge you for work that could be less quality than your owns !!

Thanks guys, but no... no... and no.

Ripping off panels, and effing with stupid a$$ clips and $#!+ is just not my thing.

I'd rather pay BIG $$$ and have this particular aspect of my build done for me.

But still, I was kind of hoping to get it done for less than $1000 ($300 material, $700 labor)

BTW, I dunno' about the doors, but I tried (with my mechanics help) to get my roof panel down, so I could do some foam rubber insulation, and even that was a total beee-otch ! Spent a couple hours, and basically gave up, before we had it completely down.... or maybe there were some special clips or something. Don't remember now.

But do remember thinking > If ever this think gets sound deadened, I'm paying somebody else to do it !

This is just one of those things that sounds easy on paper, until you actually get into it, and holy $#!+ !

Not me.

PS, Like taking off the bumpers.... Easy, right ? Just a few nuts and bolts. HA ! We took mine off (with air tools) so they could be powder coated.... Took 3+ hours, during which time we had to remove more than 130 (I counted) nuts, bolts, and clips ! MF'ing rediculous ! I'll never do that again either.
