Adding wheels, body cladding paint at dealer??

Hey there,

Who out there has had their dealer add aftermarket wheels to their Expy? If you've done it, what did you buy and howmuch were you able to get them for??

Also, some dealers out here are painting the cladding body color. What woudl be a reasonable price to have this done at the dealer?

Any and all help is welcome.

Jeff, any perspective on this??

Thanks, -Paul

I got a quot from a paint shop of $450.00 to do mine, that was without a warranty because they were painting plastic. I think it was too much with or without warranty, so I painted it myself with excellent results. All for less than $175.00.
