I went to DTM auto shop today and get an estimate, first, customer service is superb, they quoted me $750 for the repair, cuz they have to remove the whole panel, service will take 4 days.

Im now looking for more options, but if I don't see any , im happy to bring my car at DTM to get it fixed.

oh damn its on the rear quarter panel too. that sucks

It doesn't look so bad. Maybe take a close up pic of the worst damage? It looks like all clear coat. Is any damage to the metal or primer?
Take it to a detailing shop. Or I can fix it for you for a fee.

If you take your car to a paint shop, they will want to paint it. They will do whatever makes them money. They won't say no to your money.

Its on the primer already , u think it can be buff? When you run over your nails on it, you'll feel how deep it is

1. Are you SURE its on the primer? or are you making a guess? do you know what color primer is on a black base coat?
2. Why are you running your nails on it? you shouldn't own a black car.
3. Take a better/closer pic of the worst damage.
I'm pretty sure I can fix 90-95% of it for less than 100bucks.

This is what I think of every time I see this type of shit...

Dear god they got you too.... Watch out I took my car to west co mall the other day and some one keyed my hood when I was buying some clothes -.-

A mild cut polish and buff should get rid of most of it.
For the rest, you can use a crayon type lipstick thingy to fill it out and then buff it out.
Something like this- I've used it before and it worked pretty good. A lot better than spending $750. For 15-20bucks its worth a try. If you need help, buy me some pizza and I'm there.

This also worked for smaller swirl marks and spider webs.

can't wait to see the renew pic

xcooperx · 03-20-2015, 10:15 PM

Finally got my car back, Carstar la Habra body shop did a perfect job on fixing the damage, I probably going to comeback for the clear bra installation when I get the funds. Here's some photos of my frs:

They have to coat the whole panel btw.
