Cost Of Fixing This Scratch? by ebuka1997: 7:44pm On Jul 19, 2022
I recently got my drivers license and learnt how to drive. I went to buy fuel but unfortunately mistook the turn and scratched the side. How much will this cost in Abuja please? Thanks

That fix may take no more than 30k for a shoddily quick job. But for a quality impeccable job which won’t leave any hints of work done, it may be exceed 45k.

You're right but that still depends on who. A roadside Painter can spray it for 5k but every body will see how terrible the job is. grin while a good auto painting shop may do it for 50k. Quality is the difference basically.

Some kazeem painters will do an almost perfect job on that dent for 15k or less..and that amount is because of the current inflation..normal normal, na 7k work at most..and the dent occurred in an area where it will be quite easy for a handy painter to blend in the new paint with the rest of the body..

That dent isn't that much of a big deal..as far as the paint on the car car is still the one stated in its color code, and its color code can still be found on the vehicle, nicely repainting that dent is a piece of cake for a kazeem who can interpret color codes..Worst case, he will loose the car's fuel tank cover and take it to the paint mixing shop, where the correct paint as seen on that tank cover will be mixed for him smiley

0P, ignore anyone quoting 30, 40, 50k for that dent fix....how much e go come be to paint the whole motor biko? grin

Ask around your area for kazeems that work on accidented Tokunbo vehicles....Those guys will shock you with the quality of work they will do on that dent at an affordable price.
