Body shop prices

So, I was wondering if you guys could give me a ballpark figure for some work I wanna have done at a body shop. I know its hard to say because it depends on the quality of the work, but I'm looking for like mid road-high quality. So here's what I want to get done:

Paint my stock mudflaps to match car
remove rear "H" badge and get holes filled and painted
fill in/paint a ding I have on my passenger door about the size of a penny

I think that's all for now. BTW its a FBP coupe if that matters, thanks.

It'll cost you a bit even though it's little damage, due to having to blend the paint to the trunk and the door.

Can't give you an estimate but if it was me i'd charge you 200 for everything.

Depending on the body shop that will probably be around from $400-$850 of work aswell as depending on Quality.

yeah, depending on the body shop. 200 for everything is really cheap lol
400-850 sounds about right.
Best thing to do is look around and ask for prices.
Dont just get the cheapest one you find, but look at ther shop and see what kind of work or quality of work they do.

Yea, I agree. I went to a body shop that has done work for me before and that I trust and does great work and they quoted me 300 just for the door ding. He said the money is in the paint because they have to blend. I would be happy if I could do everything for 500 but that's still a lot. Maybe I'll just get the mudflaps color matched for cheap and just leave the other stuff alone. I'll have to get some more quotes before I make my final decision.

You should be able to get the ding removed from a paintless dent removal guy. Check with your dealerships, they tend to have one that comes and repairs for hail damage and other incidents. Two of my uncles do this.

It's not a ding, its weird. Its like a big chip. It's pretty deep and its like wavy around the edges. Needs to be filled.
