Hi all i recently got backed into and the bonnet and bumper got a bit messed. what is the best plan of attack with this, new gards are $310 for bumper and $600 for bonnet (owch!!!) thats without painting! got a quote of 1800 os so and nearly choked as the cars only gotta be worth 5k, I can't belive its gonna cost me 40% the price of the car to fix the bonnet.
MY question is, how easy is it to get second hand parts buff them back to the metal/gel coat and then give to the shop to respray.... how much should i be expecting for this (its metallic blue), also the shop wanted to respray the front side covers as well so the colour change isn't obvious. How bad is it going to be if i only do the the bonnet & bumper?? (the cars paint is quite new as it is).
any info on this would be much appreciated.
thanks
