Well for the 1st time ever driving a car today I put a scratch on mine. Its on the front lip, probably about 4 inches long. Well its more than a scratch, its more like a scrape, although not very deep. Does anyone have any idea how much it would cost to have this fixed. I'd say just needs a very very small amount of bondo(or whatever they use) a little sanding and paint. I will try to get pics tommorow, my battery in my digital camera died on me tonight. On a side note i'm installing my Ion dp and fmic tommorow. Can't wait.

Where are you getting your stuff installed at? I would like to come by and say hi at least. Or if you want my garage is open if you need any tools and extra hands. Talk to Rice Toyota over in G'boro about the paint. They fixed Laracroft's MSP when she was hit by a Caddy running a red light. Looked great and they said that they would help us out.

I'm taking it to my parents house in Pittsboro to do the install. I don't really have a good place here in gboro to do it. Thanks for the info about Rice Toyota, i'll check that out.

$500-800. I know that sounds high, but take a look at the paint thread on here and you'll see why. A three-step paint job!
