its more than you might think, because to be properly done the holes need to be welded shut, and they will then need to paint both doors, as well as the rear quarter panels. $700-1000 i would guess

not if it's done the proper way, which is to weld small metal patches in place to cover the holes.

It is not worth it unless you plan to paint the car anyway.

I like the 2nd method better, but the guy on the 1st method did a great job of rattle canning it afterwards. IMO JB weld should be good enough to do the trick. Metal epoxy is pretty tough to break thru unless you're doing it extremely forcefully.

Look man I jus got my sides and other stuff RESHAVED b/c the guy that did it the first time used bondo and that **** craked and broke off. IF you live near Northern VA.. I can hook u up with my painter... he is the ****... the welded every hole.. and fix some other issues with my car all for $600.. Now it all depends on your paint.. my car is primered so it really didnt matter.. but he really doesnt charge alot for paint work... does awesome job tho.. he is the one that did my bros JDM front on his R.. and is currently doin s15 fronts on Nissans and painting them all..jus weigh out your options. But It looks so much better

Honda sheet metal tends bend and burn holes really easy, I'd save some money and take it to a pro...my .02 cents
