how much do you think it would be to fix this?..... hit and runs SUCK!!:nono:

 

I would think somewhere around 1200-1500.

I had similar damage to my car, and it was around that.

Granted, that was at the dealership, a local body shop could do that for less.

Or if you really wanna save some money, go find a fender, mount it, clean the bumper up. And then take it to see how much it would be to just get sprayed.

 

That's what I'm doing with mine - scored a fender for 40 bones from a connection at my local dealer

- 89_IROC

 

If you replace the fender, and do some of the prep work it would probably run $500. Unless you get really lucky and fender and bumper that match the color.

 

Is there a crease in the dent? If not, you might be able to push it out from the other side with your hand.

I did that once. I leaned on the fender on my Z28, and my knee pushed a spot in right around were your dent it. Only it didn't pop back out. I just moved the battery, gave it a little push, and it popped right out.

 

if this happened to me I would not spend more than 700 to fix.
I would figure the shop would need to:

remove/replace rt fender 125 used part($40 for some folks) + 4.3 hrs to install/paint
3 hrs to repair front bumper cover and 2.4 hrs to paint
1 hr to remove/install bumper cover
remove/replace side marker lamp $12.00 part + .2 hrs
paint/materials 150
= roughly $700.00 depending on labor rates and what repair times you negotiate with the repair shop

Hope this helps

9d1burd had a dealership shop write his estimate which would be higher than some of your mom and pop shops.

 

i would charge you about 200 to fix that, it takes about maybe 2 hours tops from begining to paint.

its only a fender adn a little peice on the nose that needs actual work, the rest of the nose and fender just gets sanded down and painted....

 

Thats it? Perhaps I should go to wherever you work and get an estimate. I have a dent in the same spot, one on each fender only much smaller, and no damage to the nose. I was quoted $300 each by another shop.

 

where in queens are you.... it might be worth the drive to get it done... that $200 would include smooth out the fender?
