Need your opinions on paint estimates..
My Orange Crush Tib needs some fresh paint to restore the damage she's sustained over the years. So far I went to two different paint and body shops in the area.
The first place: paint and repair all the little dings and scratches around various spots on the car. And especially the battlefield of scratches and pits on what used to be my front bumper and front part of the hood.
Estimate: $2700
The second place: paint and repair JUST the war-torn battlefield on my front bumper and hood (incl. front of the fenders).
Estimate: $1700
All the other scratches and dings around the car:
Estimate: $1370
I'm sure plenty of you have had your cars repainted, so does this sound reasonable? I don't mind paying for quality, but I don't have any frame of reference.
