Only one will be made at $2.5 million. Can't wait to see who buys it but most of all if it will be on Top Gear.

I'm afraid there won't be any deals to be had at that body shop, my friend does work there and he doesn't really do side work. He will do things for me but I was the best man at his wedding lol.

That shop does amazing work and you will never be able to tell things were re-painted. No shop in the valley can color / texture match like they can. You should fully expect to pay about $800 per panel for paint and they will require blending into all connecting panels that share the same angles at roughly $250 per panel. They will also cut and buff the entire car to make sure all the paint matches, attention to detail is straight Feezy status.

Front Fender repaint: $1300 est
$800 to paint the fender
$250 to blend into hood
$250 to blend into door

Perfection is never cheap but you will find it here.

If your car ever gets hit and the other guys insurance is paying GO HERE! Otherwise its a tough pill to swallow...

Ugh that sounds amazing, but super expensive! As you said though, perfection comes at a cost...

I better update my excel spreadsheet with these prices so I know how much I need to save

Jesus. That's a little to rich for me. That means my fenders would cost $2600 to paint. Sounds like I will need to keep looking.

You might be able to fit one in the truck is you take out the toolkit and the spare liner. Then the other could go in the passangers seat.

Thanks Robert.

Actually the insurance did pay about that much.

I'll give them a call. Should I ask for someone in particular?
