the only reason im posting here is cause i trust the people on here more then other forums and dealers.
ok. first, this car is not a dsm. sorry. its an 07 corolla S.
anyway. i need help. its my parents car, and i took it for a drive for the first time in a long time....... i didnt tell em. and i backed up into someone. no damage to their car but this is my parents


now i have 2 years of bodywork exp. im just looking for a price quote from other people.
how much do u think it would cost.
AGAIN IM SORRY ITS A TOYOTA.!!!

RE: please help. in need BAD!!
 

slide hammer and stud gun or hammer an dolley, easy fix for you, but im guessin....triple digites no more because price is flat rate...they estimate how much time it takes and price per hour and thats the charge..to me it looks like...a day or two of work so it shouldnt be much no panel replacment is needed

RE: please help. in need BAD!!
 

but wait... are you going to get the parts and do the work yourself?? if you are paying someone it will be alot more... but you said u got 2yr exp so i would say do if yourself.. and most of all TELL THEM YOU DID IT LMAO.. or just say you hit it with the lawn mower or something haha

RE: please help. in need BAD!!
 

well you're luck you didnt crack the bumper, if you did that would have been an extra 200 or so just to replace that. My guess would be 400.

RE: please help. in need BAD!!
 

the only damage that needs to b replaced is directly under the tail light. bumper can b sanded, primed, paint.

RE: please help. in need BAD!!
 

not really....hammer and dolly or a stud gun would get that out....ive done a similar repair on an acura integra...(although id rather have just smashed it myself)

RE: please help. in need BAD!!
 

i would just get a new bumper... seems like it would be alot less work and come out a bit cleaner

RE: please help. in need BAD!!
 

Why when the bumper is not cracked orbadly damaged, its just scuffed a bit.

RE: please help. in need BAD!!
 

the cost of a new stock bumper is more expensive than fixing the one on the car

RE: please help. in need BAD!!
 

yea. the bumper is no problem.
and i dont have a stud gun.
