I believe it. They wanted $4k to do both surrounds complete, pre-covid price. I paid them $2k to re-do the surrounds with no-re-anodizing. It's been a number of years now, and they still look like they do in the previously posted photos.
I had no choice but to save up and pay. It was the final trim-work my car needed, and I feel it was worth it. They are made of un-obtainium after all.
