took my two front fenders to a body shop 3-4 months ago .told him to take his time i didnt need them and use it for fill in work. the gentalman stopped by today to tell me that they were all ready to be picked up. he replaced a peice of metal on the bottom of each fender and primed them no paint just primer .these fenders were in what i call very good shape. .he said i would have to spot putty them when the fenders were on the truck so it wouldnt crack from twisting or anything. i ask how much . he said $600. i was shocked at the price but didnt want to tell him i was not happy because he does work for my buisness i work for. i will pay him tomorrow for the fenders and take an olds friends advice (a wise mouth is a still mouth).i dont expect to have a $20,ooo pw becuase i intend on doing alot my self but the way im going it will be $20ooo.im not critisising this guy i do still like him and i guess he has over head .but i think that was a little high . my body told me that was a good price .cant you buy new for $350. man im glad thats off my chest.
