About these dents...

Got my 08 Civic for a fairly decent price, and it has a couple of minor dents on the sides, one larger than the other. Go figure, right?

Any idea what I should expect to pay to get them fixed? I'll take clearer pictures when I get back from vacation tomorrow evening. Didn't realize I hadn't really photographed them until just now lol the photo of the passenger side is a screengrab from a video smh

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Ask this question at 3 different bodyshops, then compare estimates.


Good is not cheap, and cheap is not good.

Will do.

In your experience, what's a ballpark range figure for something like this?

...we don't work at body shops and have no idea, to be as polite as possible, get off your *** and phone a shop, lol.

We're not going to track your IP, google shops near you, and find the best quote.
