repainting front hood and fenders...
since the car is in the shop they said they'd do the front clip for 700 bucks and that would include the new clearbra for the hood and partial for the fenders as well....good deal?

Are they going to wait to put the clear bra on later? I was told you had to wait at least 30 days before you put any film on the paint. Oh...if they can do all that for $700 then that is a steal...

Amazing deal! Doo-eeet!
Are they going to prep the chips prior to painting them? Some shops get really lazy and just painted over the chips resulting in uneven paint thickness.

lakeside collision in bellevue. They said they'd cut me a deal since the car is already in the shop....I think it might be just 700 for the repaint and no clear bra. I already have new clearbra going onto the new bumper but I don't want to not have any protection on the new paint on the hood and fenders if I repaint it...I'll keep ya updated.

Great deal. Will you please ask what they will charge for the same work on a black C32? Mine could really use it but I was thinking the cost would be twice what they are quoting you. I understand they are cutting you a deal but if they could get close to that I'd be interested...

I think maybe if you ask them for a package deal for both the clearbra + repaint they might cut you a deal but nothing close to the 700 since they were working with the insurance on it and what not.

argh its too late. That deal was only for when they were putting it together. It was 700 for BOTH repainting the front end and redoing to the hood/fender clear bra. If I knew it was for both I would have jumped all over it...
