I had mine custom paint-matched for about $200, which also covered painting and mounting my GFX.

Ollie, do the sanding and prep yourself...that will drive down the cost...

Yeah we charge more cause people just screw it up and fuzz up the bumper covers so we have to blend the fenders and stuff and re prime everything . Just leave it to the shop unless you have a GOOD idea of what your doing

Hey Twitch, would you be able to give me an estimate if I show you the damage? I'm also thinking of painting the whole car at the same time.

But at the minimun I need to fix the damage. It would be much appreciated!!

Whooaaa. That's dirt cheap. I just got mine back from Boyd. Fenders, hood, nose, base/clear was well over $1000. Nice job but big bucks.
