It’s your choice! An estimate may vary anywhere from $5.00 to $1,000.00 in cost.However, the lower one may overlook important details. Ask whether the shop has a dedicated bench to hold today’s uni-body cars and bring them back into shape, precise measuring tools, a device for checking the alignment of all four wheels while the repairs are being done, and a mig welder – a low-heat torch that won’t destroy the high-strength steel. Ask about the repainting facilities. Basecoat/clearcoat finishes should be performed in special painting rooms where excess spray and dust can be forced away from the car. Ask if all the technicians have completed professional uni-body training programs. Seems like a lot of questions, doesn’t it? Just remember, your automobile is probably the second largest investment after your home. Therefore, you should choose the best repair facility available. An improperly repaired vehicle could cost you money and provide less safety for the occupants.
