Taxable and Nontaxable Service and Installation Labor Performed by Motor Vehicle Body Shops Outside a Warranty Contract.(1)
Charges for labor or services provided in installing or applying taxable repair parts sold shall be subject to sales and use tax. For example, a motor vehicle repair shop that sells and installs bumpers on an automobile shall collect and remit sales tax on the sale of the bumpers and any service, installation, or labor charge associated with the installation of the bumpers. Since the bumpers sold are subject to sales tax, the service, installation, or labor charges associated with the installation of the bumpers shall also be subject to sales and use tax.(2)
Service, installation, or labor charges made to tangible personal property where there is no sale of taxable tangible personal property, digital property, or service shall not be subject to sales tax.

The service, installation, or labor charge associated with the sale and installation of the front grill shall not be subject to sales and use tax.Section 4.

The person performing the repair work under a contract sold prior to July 1, 2018, shall report and pay the tax on the purchase price of all tangible personal property used in the fulfillment of the optional service, maintenance, or extended warranty contracts.Section 5.
