Hey guys, well I got home from hauling a bear home late last night and the box and tonneau cove had blood on it that I didn't see and my dog decide to jump on the side of the box and scratch the paint all to hell. It's from the wheel up to the cab with a couple scratches on the door. I think they are too bad to buff out. So my question is how much do you all think it would cost to get it fixed/repainted? Thanks

They would have to paint the entire bedside and break it off at the tail light. My friend owns a shop and I would guess around 250.

To paint a bedside for scratches. Prob around $3-400. Depends on the shop. At my work if you are paying out of pocket, we would keep it low...under $500. Its would be that much because we would R+I the tonneau cover, bed cap, bumper and tailight to do a proper repair. Then repair and paint the scratches, and buff. My guess would be about 7-8 hours body labor and 5-6 hours paint labor. I could be wrong...its been a real long time since I took an auto damage appraiser course.

Thanks for the replies guys. Hopefully it doesn't cost too much

Got any pics? Did it go thru the clearcoat to the paint?

Ya I'll get some when I get home shortly. Its beyond the paint. I think some of them will buff out but there are a couple of deep ones

good question. I read " scratched all to hell" and just assumed it was through the clear

if you can catch up fingernail in it, it will need paint

I just had a Ford dealer cahrge $325 to repaint my tailgate.
Probably about the same for one side.
Check around for prices.
I had my local mechanic (who also does body work) quote $470.
