i talked to a guy that can repair some rust on my ek civic and he told me $625 to get them done. hes gonna cut them out and paint it. i was wondering if you guys think thats a good price.

 

how bout trying other bodyshops in your area?

 

depends what he uses to fills the holes he cuts... if its metal, good deal.. if its body filler, bad deal

 

That sounds cheap if you ask me, sorry to say that. But to cut, weld, do any sort of body work, prime properly then paint both quarters properly there is around 200 - 300 in materials alone, that doesn't leave much for labour which means something wont get done right. I do a lot of custom paint and have done rust repair on a few accord and civics and it aint fast or cheap. I'm not trying to be a dick at all, I hope you don't take it that way, just people really understimate what it takes to do this kind of thing the right way.

 

i just got both my sides done.

guy/friend did both my ek quarters cut out and welded in new metal quarters and repainted the whole quarter on both sides so no blending of paint need.

he also fixed and repainted my rear bumper

oh ya he picked it up monday afternoon and was done wed night.

all for....500 bucks

it looks amazing i found 2 small runs thats it...but i cant complain for half a new car for 500.

625 is cheap if you ask me.

 

i think i'm gonna go through with it. better than looking at the rust. thx for all the reply guys

 

i think youll be more happier then ever after its doen.

even with all the parts and motor swap with my car...nothing made me happier then seeing it rust free just made the car look new.
