Remove both doors and strip to the shell, except for glass? I completely do not understand this step of their process in the repair of dents, which seems like un-necessary work....and 30 hours labor? We use a stud gun, which welds studs to the dented area, so we can pull dents out(if there is no access to the inside to pound them out). I wonder what process they will use, and why they have to remove the doors to do it? One guy working four 8 hour days just to R&R parts and repair dents... Their labor rate is actually less than the shop I work at, which is $37/hr. The paint labor and paint and materials sounds right, though.
Did I read the insurance company wrote this estimate? They generally like to low-ball repairs.
