why not ask him how much he's willing to do it for first? i usually do work for free or a dinner, depending on how much work is involved and how hungry i am. a friend dose alot of side jobs for church members and only charges them half of what it would cost at a shop. i do it as a hobby mainly but it's his livelihood so he's in it for the money also.

well i asked him and he said look around and he'll beat any price...but he said he'll check up on it...he doesn't have a job he just works on cars in his garage...i don't want to be cheap but i don't want to over pay..

$500 is prob fair for a friend to do this much work. IMO.

heck yes 500 to do that sounds fair as hell. If I still lived in nc I would do it for FREE, but now im stuck on long island so that doent help you, but yeah 5bills sound good.

if your friend is doing the work...$500. If you're assisting, $300. That's a fair labor charge. If it were me, I'd do it myself. There's how to's in books and I'm pretty sure on this site too.
