I was backing out of my garage and it was a tight squeeze I was doing less than 2 mph and I scraped the front of my car on the garage door track. How much do you think this will cost me to fix?

 

Sorry to hear this.

My guess from similar incidents is that it could cost you from a few hundred bucks up to 1000 dollars... depending on where you go.

I would ask for some quotes from any local repair shops asap if I were you.

.

 

i would say ..depends on wat u want...buy a new fender? or repair the old one...that will be price difference...anyway u must have to repaint the whole fender....if i take this to my bodyshop..might get a quote for range of $500 with a brand new fender

 

can they just hammer it out?

 

get the ings+1 fenders!

 

i had a similar instance occur to my fender, but some stupid biitch did it... i had two estimates done. the correct one with all the body and blending was $850.xx ... i got another estimate that did not include color match blending for other panels @ (roughly) $650


you can refer to this thread for more info...

Do you think the whole fender needs to be repainted?

 

yes, at least the entire fender... also the door, splash guards, mirror, etc.


... i know...it BLOOOOWS

 

Cant they just hammer it out and touch it up?

 

sorry man, good luck once it fixed you will never know.

 

ouch...that hurts me just lookin at it and its not eve my car. I feel for you man. Im no body work specialist but it seems like itll definitely run you a good couple hundred bucks.

 

You can hammer it out, body work it and blend it will be about 500 depending on where you go

 

You shouldn't have to paint anything other than the fender unless you're dealing with a bodyshop by inferior paints. Take your car to a reputible shop that has a lifetime warranty. They'll bang it out, no need to replace. I wouldn't go through your insurance because #1. Your deductible's probably close to the cost of fixing it, and #2. You'll want to avoid any negative remarks on your carfax.

 

Alright, thanks for your support guys. I want to get it fixed asap because it makes me depressed whenever I look at it and it only happened today.

 

If they want to charge you any more then 250 to unwrinkle the fender it's cheaper to get a replacement one.
