It doesn't look like you would have to replace the whole thing...It's just dented in right? It should be able to be pulled out and filled.

Still fixable though, a professional shop shouldn't have a problem with that. It's definitely something I would leave to the pros, because it would probably take a lot of experience to get that just right.

Yeah, paintwork is so expensive. Worth it for a clean car though...

yea thats definately fixable. Looks to be maybe 5.5 hours of body labor, roughly 250-300 depending on rate. doesnt include any paint labor.


Maybe more hours if you use polyester spray fill then a second primer to get it just right...

Pffft. Try 9-12 hours easy. Body lines make everything worse. Also the fact that they are going to be reshaping the molding dip.
