I have done 20 plus sets now and have it down to an efficiency that allows for a good price . What I am offering is I drive to you you pay trip time and hotel/lodging if needed. Cost to TIG weld the flares on is $3200. I will get them welded (butt joint) and TIG them on and do basic grinding but nothing crazy as the body shops like to do final grind and hammer etc. This takes 1.5-2 days to complete. I just did a set a few weeks back and it took 1 long day and half to wrap up. If anyone is wanting this done or talk about it let me know.

QUOTE(js7853 @ Sep 2 2025, 01:54 PM)  For the west coast guys, I'm in northern Santa Barbara county and have a shop on my property that could accommodate this work. I spoke with Ben and can arrange for flights. If anyone has TIG equipment available to use, that would be helpful as I don't have that equipment at present. We could also arrange to have some work done at my place and some work done at a suitable location in the LA basin. I'll let Ben decide on the most suitable dates, but I think he said late December or early January would work best for him. Does that mean Santa Maria area? |

That’s not a me question as I know nothing of the geography of California |
