I need to get like 1 ding on the hood fixed and i need to get the hood painted and the new bumper painted. Around how much should that cost me? Also, my windshield has light scratches on it from taking off ice with out a appoved ice scrapper, does anyone know of anyway to remove those? Maybe rubbing compound? Thanks

maybe around $400-$600 for painting both hood and bumper. all depands on where u go.

oh well i got an estimate. ~1000 and that includes blending the fenders......

shop around. you'll be surprised how much it varies from places to places. try to get some recommendations as well... cheap or expensive doesn't necessarily = good work.

I know this place does good work, i know many people that have gone there. But i think i will try one more place.

i had quotes for the smae thing and they averaged about 800-1000. i took the high one and did it myself

My uncles best friend owns a body shop...he did it for me for $300. Hood and bumper. No blending though. He does good work. My uncle and I are pretty close so his friend has seen me grow up, but then again this is how he feeds his family...I don't think he gave me a deal so much as he just didn't jack up the price on me. Another thing to keep in mind is where you live. If I would have got it done at a body shop in the city or in an affluent suburb of New Orleans it would tend to cost more. He lives a ways out...where prices aren't so inflated.
