Default Pics of my car at the Body Shop..

I ran over to our Body Shop and dropped off my car earlier. I took some pics of the damage so I'll be able to see a before and after. I decided to go ahead and have my bumper and cme valance painted along with the quarter and door. My guys should have it done by Wednesday







UPDATED PICS FROM 7/14:

the total was $304.04 but that's my pricing of course. the estimate i wrote before i dropped all the labor and material rates down was close to $900. i think painting the whole car was like 2500 before my discount
