Five hung sounds OK too me dude!! Remember they have to remove the bar, sand it, prep it, undercoat it, paint it,clear coat then fit it again it just aint a five min job!!! Cant hurt to shop around thou!! Oh yeah dont forget the price of paint and sand paper and all the stuff you need to do the job!! :-)

I gave my front bar to Phil at Cobra bodyworks in Hartley St. it was str8 from manufacturer in fibreglass. he painted it with with 2-3 coates of black and clearcote for $200.00.
I reckon that was a pretty fair price

$200 is a good price, but $500 is also a good price for a front and rear bar, I don't think you'll get much cheaper than that. That said I can probably beat the price but not by much, maybe 100 bucks or so. If you are interested let me know and I will get you in touch with guy who painted my car.

Go and talk to Phil at Cobra, he does good work, as XR8 stated, and he will give you a good/reasonable price.

Also try right price smash repairs! they do really good prices and not a shit job either! Also AAA is good and reasonable priced. At work(Trinity Auto) we send them to both panel shops but mainly AAA as they have a bigger workshop and more staff so we get cars back quicker!
