I guess I'm looking for a ballpark figure on what the average body/paint shop would charge for the following:
* 4 one inch minor scratches (hair thin/separate body panels)
* 3 deep two cm scratches (1mm thick/door only
* 1 4inch X 4inch spider cracks on rear bumper(Softball size area)

I'm not looking for perfection, and would want to avoid full panel painting. Can a good body shop touch up individual areas without repainting entire panels? Anyone want to take a guess at what it would cost. Very rough estimates..

BTW- Paint color ~ White on an S4S (Not mine... yet...)

Thanks in advance.

About a year ago I had the clear coat peeling off various areas of my Monaco White SE. The paint shop had to repaint the rear quarter panel, the section that goes above the door, the rear hatch and wing, and the front hood. It cost me ~ $1000. I think it was a good price. They did a heck of a job.
