What will it run to fix this?
What will it run to fix this? This happened the other day at work. What do yall think it will cost to fix it? It is deep, and will not buff out. I am trying to prove who did it, but I would like an estimate just cuz.

That is such a terrible thing to do to such a beautiful car! I thought that having my car egged and having it eat through the paint on my roof a few weeks ago was the end of the world! This just puts things in perspective. I would thing that you would be looking at least 600 for them to just blend in the scratch, but for them to do it right and respray every panel affected would probably be at least triple that.

Verdad Gallardo I pissed off a kid at work, he broke some **** and supervisor found out. He blamed that on me and said he would get me back, and that I would find out how later. Then this happened. What are the chances of that happening? I don't have proof yet that it was him, but I hope to get some so that I don't take this one up the tailpipe. Any estimates on price to fix it back to the quality that it was, which was perfect.

What a dumbass, google his name and confront the ****. Dumbass people like that deserves *** whoopins. Sorry to see something like this happen, but I would say a price would be around $1000 for the three panels with proper paint. Depends though, best way to know is just take it to a shop and have them give you an estimate.

DAMN!! that sucks *****! if that would have happen to me as soon as i would have walked out side and seen that scratch.. i would looked up and if i see anyone in my sight il beat the living crap out of them!! even if it wasnt that person! gonna be $$$ insurance?
I got an estimate of $700 just for the rear 1/4 panel to eliminate hail stone damage and one small scratch that went thru the clearcoat.
Cannot imagine the entire side cost??
That friggin' SUX! What a jacka$$ who ever did it? Someone needs to be taken out back and taught the facts of life!
