Thanks to a great suggestion by Superstar, I am showing you a picture my car, a 2005 Nissan Altima (named Smokey) after it was hit by the notorious Chevelle. The suggestion was to have you all estimate the cost to fix her. Bob Barker would be proud!
The second picture shows the back bumper being held in place by duct tape (it was hanging off the car originally).
I'm guessing a couple of thou at least?
ReplyDelete$1900.00 which includes the door, body work, paint and parts for the bumper.
ReplyDeletein true price is right fashion: $1901.00... sorry rainman
ReplyDeleteOne Dollar, Bob!!!
ReplyDeleteYou told me the possible range over the phone Sunday night, but I don't think you told me the official estimate.
ReplyDeleteSo I'm going for $2100.
$2759.00
ReplyDeleteYou alright Bro!
2100
ReplyDeleteAHHH not as bad as I first thought. Now I am going to do new parts, then a 2nd w/ used.
ReplyDeleteBumper=$2000, paint, re-attach;
Backside quarter panel, $1000, paint, re-attach;
Back side door $1200, glass remove and re-install $300, paint and put back together "smokey" back together for $4500-5K. If they are able to re-use your parts I will take off some...(Not including rental car at $30/per day for about a 10 day job=14days of rental...)
That is a 7-10 day job with parts/labor/paint...I am keeping my guess at $4500-$5K.
Nice Pics BTW...Bob Barker is SO proud!
*sniff* *sniff*
I would say superstar is the closest.
ReplyDeleteNew Bumper - 1100
New Quarter Panel - 850
New Door - 1000
Paint/labor - 2000
All told - at least 4950.
Los living another day to entertain us with his blogger commentary...
ReplyDeletePriceless.
(sorry, I couldn't resist)
--snow
I say $3347.82!
ReplyDelete$3000 with labor.
ReplyDeletemy first guess would be $666.00 ...but that would be too much of a coincidence... so i'll go with $2345.67 just to prove i'm numerically challenged.
ReplyDeleteI'm going for the big 5,000 if the repair man gets it from your insurance company.
ReplyDeleteI saw free to you since it was the girls' fault. Glad you're OK. By God, don't go to his shop -- sounds like a great way to not have it fixed right.
ReplyDeleteCan't resist, though: now you have 2 cars with ass dents.
Yet another fabulous use for duct tape... it's not just for packages anymore...
ReplyDeleteOuch...using duct tape on the ole package sound painful.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone for your price guesses, I will update you as soon as I find out!
