Default Paint Quote Sound Fair? pics

Im getting the SS back to PERFECT condition before i start modding much, so i went the other day and got a paint quote for the drivers mirror and drivers quarter, this is from a very reputable shop, he quoted 300-350 to fix it all i think it sounded fair heres the pics



theres a couple dents around the scrach hes fixing and the scratch is to bear metal so i though his quote sounded good what do you think?

i should clarify hes sanding to primer/repainting the whole quarter so it blends correctly and you cant see where it was repaired

Great Deal. Definately worth the money IMO. I mean that scratch is hideous

Talking

dont look that deep. he might just wet sand it then buff it out and it almost looks like the same can be done to the mirror. the pic is of when my wife ran in to a honda and it almost buffed compleatly out just a few scatches that i cant even see unless im right at it. and the pic of the honda lol.it was an older lady who actualy hit her car more after she got home trying to sue me but the cell phone pic she dident know about proved her other wise lol old *** hag. my tow hook did most of the damage lol. escalade dumdumdum.
