Body Panel Pricing - Smart Car of America Forums : Smart Car Forum

Smartarse · 03-22-2008, 09:44 AM

Hello everyone! New to the forum. We placed our 99 deposit the day after opening the reservation program and we are about two weeks away from delivery! WOO HOO

But in the mean time I have a question to all who have checked or don't mind calling their smart center to inquire.
We ordered a met blue and silver cell passion, but I want to get a second set of body panels to wrap for our business and swap them out occasionally to do a little advertising, since they draw so much attention.
My question is have you priced the body panels? If so what were you quoted on which color.
Smartcenter Buckhead Atlanta sectary said they won't take delivery of those parts till mid April(on backorder) and they are running $1200 for the black panels!

Hey guys thanks for taking the time to inquire or respond. (no offense by our login name, but when I lived in England there was a Smart accessory company with this name(still on the web today), and they offered replacement logos for the smart badging and it was Smartarse, which I took a liking to!

The price should be $899 for the solids and $1099 for the metallics. Is the $1600 the installed price. Even so learn to do yourself.

ANY MODERATORS OUT THERE? PLEASE CANCEL THE OTHER POSTING LIKE THIS THAT I CREATED BY ACCIDENT!

OK well lets post here then, I really don't mind as long as they all get on one forum posting.

I was told that the $1200.00 for the panels, and that they will charge 1.5 hrs to change them at $100.00 per hour.
I informed them that I live 4 hrs from their dealership and would be changing my personally.

Hey GAMERNOTWATCHER!
The price should be $899 for the solids and $1099 for the metallics. Is the $1600 the installed price. Even so learn to do yourself.

Is this information first hand from a working for a dealer or Inquiry?
