HoosierCLK430

I recently backed into a small pole (Crap)

However, damage was LIMITED to only some cosmetic damage to the TRIM ONLY (2 minor bumps/scratches) on the rear bumper:

Cost of trim: $68.00
Hours of Installation Labor: 1.0 hours
Hours of restoration (painting): 1.5 hours
TOTAL COST: $370.00

Is this a ripoff?

Is there a way to repair/cover up the damage or even simply hide it really well...I am saving for real MODS and this is going to kill me.

Thanks all.

I live in Seattle as well and drive a silver CLK 430.

Where did you get that estimate from?

I'm looking to get a minimal amount of body work done (paint job below the front bumber) and am looking for a reasonably local body shop that will do a good job.

thanks.

I LOVE METRO AUTO REBUILD SOUTH (MARS) in TACOMA. They do everything, but it is quite expensive...as you can read, however, they are quick, fast, and courteous. They are highly recommended also as an authorized MB/Audi/BMW insurance rebuilder by Tacoma BMW and Tacoma MB (Larsen Auto Group).
