Paint Shop Rip Off???

Hi my bro is looking get a paint job done for his 98 HB. He needs to get his hood and driver door
replaced due to rust. The car has a lot of small dents due to a hail storm. lol
So to have all rust eliminated and dents removed the hood and door replaced. It will be in a
show condition. COST? $2200 - 2500 at the most. Thoughts???????????

To get the hood, a door, and paint to bring the car in show like condition for $2500? That's a steal. I doubt you'll be able to do all that for only 2.5K.
