I just can't believe they're trying to charge me 1 grand for this door molding. I got a estimate from C&D Autobody at Hackensack, NJ for $200. I can now understand why people call them 'stealership'

Default My car is in the shop right now for almost the same job. I dented body though, so my estimate
was $750. I have a bodyshop I go to up here in North Bergen, NJ, the guy does awesome work.

Just make sure you use factory paint.

Default It's a matter of hours as long as they get the part same day, what you should do is go.....
order the moulding, once it's in and painted, pass by so that they can put it on.
