Body shop rates, FC specific
I'm going to be replacing the fenders, hood and nose on my RX7 (which was in an accident back in January).
However, the right rear wheel well has rust and a poor repair to the quarter panel that needs to be ground out and redone with steel. Plus, the car needs to be completely repainted.
I have the paint (Dupont primer and enamels, thinner, and sealers) and I'm going to replace the damged body parts. However, I'm going to have the body shop repair the rust and dents.
I'm going to disassemble the exterior and interior (leaving the shop to simply repair the rust and dents, prime and paint with the materials I bought), and then handle reassembly.
What kind of shop rates for sheet metal and refinish work are there, and what kind of costs would I be looking at?

There is no way to give an estimate, based on your info that you provided.Like I have said before. Take a sharpie marker. circle and number all the areas you want repaired. Take lots of detailed photos. Have the shop list each repair by the number of the photo. Then post your info and we can let you know.
