Default S2K Backed Into

Was at a friends house having a few beers around the fire and someone leaving (Sober Driver) backed into my car.



Police called, crash report received and insurance info collected. Get to call for quotes and claim tomorrow.

That quarter will have to be sprayed but touch up paint and a buff will get it ok in the mean time.

Took it to Honda today for a quote.

Quarter was repaired previously at one point. I had suspected this as the paint was a little different in certain lights around that area.
They said they will have to replace the entire quarter panel at a $3,900 estimate.

Got two more local shops that were recommended to me before I get the work done.

Wow those qoutes vary greatly. Do you have the parts list and cost of labor for each qoute? Im not suprised the dealer wants like 4k but its weird that one shop says 700 and another says 2100. When I got qoutes for the damage on my bumper they were all pretty similar.

I think Abra is so low because they didnt quote me for Paint Blending or Labor for SoftTop R/I. Will look at their estimate sheet when I get home.
