RE: Ridiculous Quote from Body SHop
ORIGINAL: POWERS
I didn't mean just paint as in they are just spraying paint on it. I meant it as in that it is such a small job. And color blending shouldn’t be an issue if they use the same color paint. It was a quote from the local ford dealer so they should have HP White on hand, right?. You can order the online pre-painted for around $150 for the painting. Of course the quality that comes out and how well it makes it through being shipped is another story. That’s why I chose to order and have it painted once it arrived.
I’m just looking for some guestimates as to what others have paid or think is a reasonable amount to expect to pay for such work. This is my first experience with having body parts painted.

there's more than just spraying paint on it. It has to be color blended (unless you want your car to have two shades of whatever color you have)
Have them break down the pricing for you on an itemized quote. Then go to two other shops to see what they say.
