Any recommendation for workshop that specialise in this kind of repair work?

And what are the rough estimates for this kind of repair?

I used steer to ask for quotation, three different workshop quoted me $258, $300 and $380 (before gst)
Quite a difference for the same dmg

some workshops omit GST in the final billing & this could be an estimated cost (until the car is been reviewed @workshop)

did they mention what is the downtime? :s12:

Go for the 380$ 2days job. Dmg like this at least 450$ 1day job for reputable workshop. Price so low sure give lousy workmanship

Can try Autoglym Paint Renovator on the fender area. It worked last time for me, similar case - no dents or deep scratches. The door side looks more damaged.

Otherwise a reasonable price charged by spray paint shops should be around $300, I guess.

1. Polish will remove/lighten some of the scratches, just not the deeper ones
2. The price for these jobs also depends on the quality of work you desire although this applies more to dent repair

This guy was very reasonable and his quality was good enough(a year or two back), worth asking for a quote-

There's also an old man shop somewhere in Woodlands iirc. They do cabs etc. Not chop carrot price but you have to go down to them. They don't really use WhatsApp or smartphones to send photos. :s13:
