The bad part about my dents is that you can't get to them from the backside easily to bang them out. It's kind of reinforced back there. Believe me, I've looked for alternatives.
I got two more estimates today. One was $577 the other was $505. The place that gave the $577 estimate seems cleaner and all, but the cheapest place has been around here forever. All three places were about the same on paint labor and supplies. The main difference was the labor to fix the dents. The first place ($927) estimated 12 hours @ $46/hr. The cheapest place estimated 5 hours @ $42/hr. The middle place said 7 hours @ $40/hr.
I'm tempted to go to the middle place just because of my overall impression of their shop.
