I don't know exactly what to do yet.
That sounds a little high. I wouldn't worry too much about having a body shop other than the dealer paint it. I had my WRB car painted at Shaber Ave Autobody (talk to Bruce, 775-302-1261) and the paint match is *perfect*. I can't imagine he'd charge more than about $200, since there's minimal prep work.

Oh, and regarding the Oricari stuff, these guys are the US distributers: http://www.cc-b.com/Main1.htm

I think all the parts for that kit are fiberglass, but they're supposed to be very high quality.
