Me and my cousin asked the guy at LM CUSTOMS in Dallas how much was for a full frame wrap and he said $3000 I just wanted to know if this is a good price.

Homies Hydraulics charges around 1500, and for about 300-500 you can have a frame truck shipped from their shop.

Dam I guess it is kind of high :angry:

Just remember the ones who charge alot for frame wraps dont normally do a good job, for someone who dont do alot of frame wraps its hard work for them, and it usually turns out crappy.

The guys who do alot of frmae wraps usually have much cleaner work and charge less.

Then again, its all about the reputation of the shop too. Homies has the highest rep in the business.

REALLY ,,,, lol

thats alot of work , i think frames are way under priced for the amount of time they take to do them RIGHT , WHICH IS THE WHOLE FRAME . not some of it , or most of it , we DONT for example , plate around engine mounts without removing them , stitch weld plates , do the whole back but not touch the top or bottom of the front frame rails , upper ears , ect .. you get what you pay for plain an simple , WE ARENT GONNA CUT CORNERS to get a job .. more time should = more money at any good shop ... we are gonna do the WHOLE frame or we arent doing it! and i'd be willing to bet we do more FULLY PLATED FRAMES then anyone else , we average 2.5 - 3 a month , and our frames almost always start around 2300 - 2500 and can go up from there with added mods .... the frames ive been seeing done for 1500 - 1800 arent finished in my opinion ..... get it done right or dont do it :biggrin:

:thumbsup: uffin:
