Valence estimate!

I figured I might as well stop by the dealership body shop and see how much it would cost to replace my valence...
$531.67 painted and installed...
Only like $165 or so for the valence itself, lol. Cheaper than ordering off ebay!
Gonna swing by a non-dealership body shop tomorrow, if I can and see how much they charge...
Labor might be less...
$90 an hour for labor at the dealership...
3.1 hours, lol... So that's $293 for labor..
$70 for paint.

Why not just use some DupliColor automotive paint and do it yourself with 10 bucks in paint....that part gets beat to death anyway...

My brother(95_4door) just bought one from his store(Advanced Auto Parts) for $20, paint it yourself and your set for $30. Install is easy.

Installation is peanuts...
But not all of us can paint [8D]
Gonna check out one of the other body shops, and if it's still expensive like that, then I'll try myself... But I can guarantee it's gonna look like ***

I want to get it fixed, not make it worse.
Maybe I'll try my dads way and fiberglass it.
