where is there an inexpensive body shop??
 

in or around the highland park area. a friend of mine got into a fender bender with someone and is going to pay for the damages out of pocket (pull fender and a scratch)

he doesnt wanna get raped in price.. any suggestions? anyone work at one? or know someone so i can say "_______ sent me!"

how much u think that might cost??

depends... if that is a newer crv which it looks like... that corner peice is seperate from the rest of the bumper.... hard to tell from the pic... may need a bracket in there... tail light may be crack... and if that black on the bumper is scuffed it will need to be replaced because its textured... so with the bottom piece the corner (+paint)... maybe a bracket or two... plus labor probably looking at $500-$600 using all oem parts... if that peice isnt cracked and the bottom peice isnt broken it will be much cheaper... tail lights are probably a couple hundred a peice for that... they are big lights... and add if the 1/4 is damaged...hope this helps... without seeing it in person it is hard to tell

Able autobody in Piscataway. Run by a crotchety old man who does a "decent" job but charges about half what the good shops charge in the area.

i know a good shop in long branch but thats probably too far... Russomano Autobody

i have a shop in freehold but that might be too far

you own the shop?

oh just to let you guys know he paid.. something like 700 at maaco =/

yes my father in law and i own and run the shop i also do the painting and body work
