Cost of Bodywork

Can anyone give me a rough estimate of how much I'll get charged for this kind of bodywork? It's just two spots on quarter fender, one on each side, check the pictures.

I got two pictures of the really rusted side, one far and closeup.

looks like both quarter panels are gonna have to be repaired and the whole panels re cleared. expect to pay any where from about 700- 1200. id go to a couple diffrent shops and get estimates. make sure whatever shop does the work isnt gonna do something like grind it down and fill it with bondo or fiberglass. for it to be repaired right it really needs to be cut out and a small patch panel welded in. ask the shops you go to about their warranty on the body work and the paint job. There are some shops around here that offer lifetime warranties on the paint work as long as u own the car.. all thats gonna effect price also..

depends on the quality of work you want, and the type of shop you go to.
i had worse rust than that on my passenger side.
took it to a guy my brother knew, ended up costing me 200 for the guy to cut out a piece, weld in a new piece of metal and somewhat paint to match... from 10 feet away, you couldn't tell
but that is a case of a cheap job, i had an actual good bodyshop quote me 800 for the same type of work that i got done, and only on one side
you get what you pay for
