Alright, well with my new project to build a bumper, i decided im going to chop the back off and have a mj back added into the xj to close it off. But im not that good. My question is. What is a ball park range cost for this if i take it to a shop? i want it to look like this one!!!

claygrassmann

it would prolly be alot im guessin a few grand

spahr69

yea, im going to have to get a quote.because i dont think im skilled enough to do this.

with time invested, anything is within your ability. For something like that I wouldn't take it to a shop. I'd do it myself and just take my time to do it the right way

i do not own a welder or know what kind of welder to buy. or have any of the tools i would need.

even buying all the tools needed its still gonna be cheaper then any shop will charge!!!

spahr69

i guess so. but i would rather save up and have the shop do it. because i dont have the experience to do such a task

ZachsXJ

plus you get to keep the tools!

...the only way to get experience doing stuff like that is by just doing it. FrankZ and Nick never learned all that they know by paying a shop to do things for them. just my $0.02

well i will consider it. first im going to hunt down the back of an mj and go from there.
