Default How much to shave emblem?

Hey. I did a search, couldn't find the answer.

I got the back emblem ripped off my car. 2 minor scratches and the 2 holes.

I was wondering around how much i should be willing to pay for the holes to be filled and the area repainted. Thanks.

Went to a rice-shop and they were trying to sell me 'glow-in-the-dark emblems' for $100 bucks......

Glow in the dark huh? You should have picked up some LED washers while you were there!

it depends where you go. everyone is going to charge a different amount. best bet would be ask around at some local shops.

Pacific Mall 0wn3z j00! That is my all time favourite mall. But being the only white guy there other than the security guard is awkward.

the real one on my 2k1 is a deep red. if you look at it, u can see that it varies black/red as you turn u'r head from side to side.

the fake one is pure cherry toping red.
