Side skirt and front bumper replacement

I have recently picked up side skirts and a front bumper cover to replace the broken one on my 88 Camaro. Would a body shop be the place to take it to get some professional help? Lol this feels like too much for me to handle on my own at my house

Yes sir, any body shop worth a squirt will be able to handle that no problem.

Its defitneily doable at home I'm just concerned about time and getting it on the road before winter hits and drive my jeep the whole time. I'll probably price out body shops and see if its worth saving the time. Its needs a dent fixed anyway lol

It is a bit time consuming but its really not hard. You could get it done in a few hours or a less than a 12 pack. I know the shop I took my car to for paint as $85 an hour. I would rather drive a Jeep in the winter anyways...
