Does anyone have any idea how much it would cost to fix this kind of body damage?



I can provide more pictures if necessary. Thanks in advance.

 

ouch.. rear quarter panel... that sucks.. its not very hard to get a quote from a body shop... probably take like 10 minutes.

 

I got charged ~500 to fix some quarte panel damage that was way smaller than that..
and that was a hookup price.

i'd say you'll be looking at anywhere from 500-1000 to fix that

 

I would take it and get a quote if it were actually mine. I'm considering buying this car and I'm deciding if it's worth it with that kind of damage.

Thanks for all the replies..I pretty much figured it'd cost somewhere in the $500-$1500 range. I was just trying to pinpoint where.

 

How much is it being sold for?

$3k. It's a 97 5 speed LS with 73k miles on it.

 

I'd offer $2500. Thats easily $1k in damage.


Or just go at it with a plunger

 

If you take off the interior from the inside, you can prolly reach that fairly easy,
and most of those dents are "large", so they might be able to be pushed out.

 

man thats dirt cheap i can that fix for cheap

 

Unless its salvage title?

That's what I was thinking/hoping.

I'm gonna get a better look at the car soon at which point I'll make him a cash offer.

Clean title.

 

More pictures...





Here's some more unrelated damage...

 

Seems like a lot of damage, but for 3k and 70k miles? Steal.

 

Thats not that bad of a price at all

 

i had similar damage repaired for 400...my boy knew the guy so i got a deal...but the other place i took it to said 700...
if your in no rush to get it fixed just drive around the mall parking lot for a while and wait for someone to hit you

 

walmart on sunday

 

3,000 is still pretty good price for it, I would do it.

lol probally the best idea but id be wary of the types of people that shop there...probally no car insurance...

 

I had quarter panel damage = $$$$

 

I can see alot of body filler on one of the pics....thats not a good sign

 

looks like somebody leaned on it really hard w/their ***.....

 

Most of that can be fixed paintless dent style. I would charge you $ 250.00 to work the quarter panel. After I straightened the quarter, it would only take a little bit of filler to make it perfect. If you had someone local fix it, and the paint work was kept within the panel, and not blended into the door, your looking at about $600.00.

I wouldnt let it deter you from buying the car, just knock him down in price a little.
