Need some relatively minor body work done on teh acura.... Replace front left fender, bang out some dents, sand, paint driver door, driver rear quarter....Also have some light mechanical work to be done as well- Would like to find someone that is reasonable as I've already got some quotes and just drop the bitch off for a couple days.Let me know if anyone is interested or could shoot me a decent reference.Thx

Doesn't sound quite as as "minor" as what you are willing to pay.

garner collision.they don't do mechanical work though.

well- its certainly not "major".... Best quote thus far is $1100 for bodywork- I just can't quit stomach spending that much on something (that at my old dealership in NY) could be done in half a day...^I'll check em out- the mechanical is the least of worries considering its all bs work ie: brakes, plugs/wires, window regulator, blah, blah, blah[Edited on May 17, 2008 at 8:13 PM.

^ What does your old dealership in NY charge???

if just dent removal, sand, paint I could usually do $150 a panel (cost)....I was kinda thinking $700 would be a reasonable price (for the whole job) if someone had their own shop and whatnot...

Sounds pretty major to me, and will probably require a complete paint job since two fenders and a door need painting. A decent paint job alone will cost you >$700.

what i feel like is that he wants this fixed without any mention of it on a vehicle history report

as long as you pay out of pocket they won't report it.
