Good repair job.

[@AutoBodyDoctor]

Thanks 👍

[@lifeofchuck2052]

How much does a job like this normally cost

[@AutoBodyDoctor]

That depends on your insurance, choice of parts, and labor rate of the shop

[@DestroGaming-pz7uf]

how long does something like this take to do?

[@AutoBodyDoctor]

4-6 hours is the average time to do this type of a job!

[@DestroGaming-pz7uf]

@@AutoBodyDoctor i just got an estimate for 8500 with 65.5 hours to do the whole thing. Sound about right with paint and such?

[@AutoBodyDoctor]

Each shop has different rates so the price of a job varies. It also depends on if you are getting OEM or aftermarket parts.

⁠@@DestroGaming-pz7ufI know it’s been over a year, but was the 8500 estimate just for the back of the vehicle ?

[@DestroGaming-pz7uf]

​@karynjones8552 yes. It took them a year to get parts for my car and when they actually started working on it the bill ballooned up to almost 14k. It took about 3 weeks to get done at the shop I used and my car looks exactly the way it did when I bought it. I just got it back from the shop end of May beginning of June.
