Is that legit!?!?

A good paint job blending everything, installing 2 fenders is 1,700.00 !?!?!? no way.

 

That sounds too low to me.

 

Need more info - are the fenders new, being repaired, OEM, etc?

Is the blending including clear on the adjacent panels?

Have you gotten a second estimate?

 

 

new fenders, includes blending to hood as well as doors. FRP Shine Fenders.

 

Sounds about right, my estimate was about 950$ to re-paint my bumper. Was that a phone estimate? Are they already painted and you want them painted another color, or are they coming in bare? Were they aware of that?

Seems a little steep, but more accurate for a re-paint

 

Wow man 950 to paint a bumper? i paid 200 bucks to paint my front silvertone bumper and i came out very nice.

 

I agree with woodburn, I had an estimate this past summer on getting my front bumper repainted, this would include taking the bumper off the car, take front lip off the bumper repaint both separately then install everything back on the car for $300 cash. I've seen the body shops work and they are awesome, factory look with no flaws and guaranteed for as long as I own the car. I had my front bumper repainted on my 01 accord about 2 yrs ago after a run in with the local wildlife, the paint started to peel off due to not enough of some kind of additive in the paint [ young painter ] and they re did the whole bumper without any hesitation's due to they mistake. These are the kind of body-shops you need to look into.

 

To install them and paint/blend them, that sounds about right. That takes a lot of labor and most body shops average around $50-$60 an hour, plus the cost of parts if you get them through them.

$900 to paint a bumper is outragous. I'm getting my whole hardtop Berlina black, my new ap2 rear bumper and my OEM style front lip painted Suzuka all for $700

 

Seems cheap to me.

When I was hit, it was nearly $3500 for the driver fender and door to be repaired/replaced. Included paint, blend, OEM panels, etc.
