Well, I just got into an accident yesterday, how much is this cost to fix?

Phiber

if there is no frame damage I would be guessing $1000-2000

to the op, I think it will be about a $1500 job. Damage doesn't seem too bad.

But all I can say is that all body shop prices vary depending on location.

sinister2c

that about $2k worth if the headlights or brackets arent broken.
New bumper, grill, hood and paint plus blend the fenders

Ouchh. I hope you get that fixed soon man. I have no idea how much it would cost.

You can goto sewell.com to see how much a rear bumper cost. I know the front bumper is $330 and comes unpainted. You have to pick it up at Lexus. They won't ship it b/c of possible damage. There's not telling how much paint and labor will cost. I hope it all works out for ya....

Agree for the silver car - maybe a little less for the rear fender (about 250 for labor bodywork and $500 for painting) and a little more for the rear light assembly ($500). That's still ~ $2500. About the same for the red car - replacement bumper cover, hood and grille (if the headlights aren't cracked).
Ouch!

I'm going to bring it to Sewell Lexus to fix it... how long will that takes usually and will they give me a loner or I have to get one through the insurance?

I just went to 5 shops and got estimates. The lowest was $1500 with everything added up. I was hoping the bumper could be patched up with some mech witchcraft but it has to be replaced (no biggee, only $300). However that rear 1/4 panel was the real kicker. Not only does it have a massive dent that needs repair, it was also bent out of shape and doesn't line up with the rear bumper/trunk. Whatever, I was honestly afraid that it was going to be much more and I'm ok with 1500. I lucked out on the scratches though. Apparently the dealer gave me this combo pack insurance with the car for free and one of the insurances is scratch removal up to 6". Once the rest of the car is repaired I'm sending my car to the dealer for a free scratch removal.

nice call on the estimate. My receipt says $1523.xx Landing it within 23 dollars gets you +rep.

I wouldn't go with the lowest just because it's the lowest. Is it the best?

Phiber

txguy977

The quote I got from the collusion center is $4100, thank god I have insurance...

New bumper, hood, grill, a set of clear bar, etc...

Phiber
