paint/body question
I was wondering if anyone could give me a ballpark on how much a new rear bumper (or fixing crack in old one), fixing dent in right rear quarter, a new front right quarter, and color matched painting of these parts would run at a body shop?
Not looking for exact #'s just a range of possible costs.

I would pull the rear bumper and repair that crack. Do the repair on the inside(kitty hair works great), and then body filler on the outer crack.
I cant see the dent so guessing its not really major. If you fix the bumper yourself, and take the front bumper off and rear bumper. Then take them to a body shop with the car that will save you some labor cost. So you would be looking at $300-600 for painting of the 2 bumper and front fender/rear quarter at a decent shop. Tell them you will install the bumpers back after you pick up the car to save you on labor.
P,S: If the dent is more then i think it is,i would up that price to max $800. Just talk with the body shop and ask if there is anyway you can save on labor cost. Some allow you to prep the car for them, and all they do is spray it. some will not do this if they give good warranty's on their work, but you can still have the bumpers off be for you take in the car(they charge by the hour on labor).
