any pics of the damage? hard to tell since all we see is the estimate and not the damages.

njobe89 · 06-10-2014, 06:32 AM

why would you think it's not right? is it just a tiny scratch? like stated above me, pictures are needed

SouthArk370Z · 06-10-2014, 07:42 AM

Depends on the damage. Good body work ain't cheap.

For doing the bumper and rear quarter panel I think its fair. Much cheaper and I'd worry about the quality.

PS Nice keyboard.

Minsu what shop is that I need my bumper done and I've been getting quotes of 650 and up just for a respray

Also why do you care it looks like your insurance is paying go for the best shop you can find

Minsu · 06-10-2014, 10:18 AM

Hah! Thanks on the key board, and it's about a hands length of dent damage to the rear quarter. So far imi this is the most fair price I've received so far, they are the biggest auto body repair in the area, so I might go with them

I'm actually paying out of pocket and it's brookside auto body in Hackensack, and if you pay out of pocket they cut you a bit more slack than if insurance was gonna pay for it

That is just crazy talk.

Reported.

I had damage to the rear quarter also. I had estimates from $700+ to $2400. I went with one that was in the business for 20+ years and handled both insurance companies (mine and the other guys) for about $1500. Pearl white can be a little tough to match. So yea, I'm guessing $700+ sounds decent.

Make sure everything lines up fine afterwards: gas cover, door, rocker panel, etc.

ParkStr8 · 06-10-2014, 12:11 PM

On my recent mishap on front quarter panel - the cost was almost exactly the same. So I think it's in line.

Anything over priced on a Nissan, especially a 370z is normal

Zteve · 06-10-2014, 12:55 PM

wondering why they are charging per hour for paint and shop supplies? i can see the labor being done per hour but supplies? that part makes no sense at all
