My neighbor hit my 91 civic si hatch. I took car to 2 places for estimates. Maaco was first. They quoted 1,096 which neighbor have to replace. List includes replacing dr. fender which he already bought, they can fix door, also replace door hinge, fender molding & clip, door clips. already have another molding. My roof, hood & front/ rear bumper need replacing b4 painting. maaco said it ll cost me about 596 out my pocket for integrated paint including sand,tape & shoot if i leave my present bumpers on or extra 270 replacing b4 paint. I know I've read about maaco good & some say don t have them paint.
Now 2 nd shop quoted me $1000 for neighbor cost. For me owner said hood need replacing, also front/ rear bumpers need replacing. If I replace hood, front and rear bumper he'll paint my roof, hood, whole left side, back of car & front bumper & hood for $500. He ll also have his guys sand, tape paint & clear coat. My right side pretty decent. My car btw is flint black metallic. I'm leaning towards 2 nd shop. He also said for $1000 he would spray whole car. I don' t have an extra 500 which would interfere with car note. Would you go with 2 nd shop & have right side painted whenever you get the extra cash.
Thank you for your time
