How much labor should I be charged to replace both hood hinges?
My passenger side got the infamous bent hood hinge issue. So every time I try to open up my hood, it rubs against the right fender. The body shop recommended that I replace both hinges in which I plan doing. I already bought both OEM hinges online.
But the auto body shop that I went to quoted $425 to replace both hinges. I think this is an expensive price. What do you guys think? I'm located in VA is that matters.
