How much do you think the quote will be from the body shop for the following work; Paint and remove two small push up dents on hood,paint right and left front fenders, Shadowline paint the window trim,smoke the taillights ,repair and paint rust around the windshield, two blistering spots on the body and try and buff /polish out some large but shallow scratches. I'll also be getting a new windshield for which i expect to pay $250.They quoted me $250 for just the rust around the windshield and two blister spot repairs so on top of that add the Hood and two front fenders, smoke taillights (Black paint mixed lightly in Clear Coat) and remove and paint the chrome trim.he also suggested they'd paint the Black pieces between the front and back windows so everything will look the same.Waiting for their call.I'm guessing around a Grand.
