Rip it off yourself and it should be like $300-400 to have the holes filled and trunk re-painted. Unless you know someone.

Taking of the wing SUCKS. Took me about 40 min to get my small one off. The high wing would be worse, I bet.

Think it depends, I got my low-rise off in about 5 minutes. Just unbolted everything, ran some fishing line around the silicone and tugged it off. Take it off yourself for sure, no need to be charged for a pretty basic task.

Well yeah I had the wing off in much less time than that, but it was about 40 min until I was happy with the amount of glue I got off the trunk.

i flagged down some kid in a black ls and ask him if he wanted my high rise. he asked how much and i just said its free if we trade trunks. so we swapped trunks in a waffle house parking lot. forgot to switch the lock on the trunk though haha
