We sent one car to casa for repairs, their estimate was for replacement of the windshield, hood, rt fr fender, rt fr headlight assembly, lower rocker mldg refinish above plus front bumper cover and 2 rt side doors. It took 3 months from the time of the estimate to get the car in, then it took them 1 month to do the work. When the car came back, they hadn't replaced the windshield, lower rocker mldg nor repainted the side doors. I had to re-shim the front door and front fender to stop the rubbing and wet sand and buff the paint to get rid of the dust. It would have taken me 1 week to do ALL of the work correctly myself. But the insurance did pay for what they did.
From now on....... I'll do it all myself.

How much is the average price per panel now?

Sino may contact number ng Toyorama? I lost their calling card. Too many Toyorama contacts sa google

edit: found it. Why do they need a chassis number to find out yung headlight for a vehicle?

Nasa 3500 na.

Sa las piñas lagpas moonwalk madami mura na pagawaan at repaint dun. Some can go as low as 1000 per panel. Maayos naman gawa while waiting.

Nakabangga kasi ng 2017 Grandia yung driver ng friend ko. The guy is asking P8k for the bumper. I said that's too much, ang naalala ko sa casa P4k +/- per panel and that was 5 yrs ago. The guy said that's the cheapest daw OUTSIDE casa. So much BS!

He's asking P20k nga kasi nasira daw headlight.

Tell them kayo magpapagawa and hindi kayo magbabayad sa kanya. Directly sa shop lang tapos shop ang kausapin nyo.

Yung honda 2019 city ng barkada ko, pinagawa namin running board, left and right fender, front bumper and driver door. Umabot kami ng 8500. Hehe

Had bumper repaint done middle of this year, around may i recall. Sedan altis rear bumper, inabot 6k php due to higher price of paint. Outside casa body repair shop. No vat though.

So kung may vat pa, almost 7k.

Quarter panel 1 piece, i think 3k ang charge naman.

Yung roof repaint, no repair. 11k i recall naman for an suv. Labor and materials na.

Katiwala na shop dito sa may qc, nr roosevelt.

Mayari mismo nagexplain sa amin price increase due to paint price increases. Not sure if similar price pa din dun sa ngayon.

Richbucks motors sa pitimini qc. Di personally kakilala. Nakilala lang dahil insurance sila nirecommend. Okay gawa so kahit mga wala na insurance na need repair or repaint sila pinapagawa namin. Maayos kausap naman.

It's how you search for the specific part for a vehicle. That way you're assured of getting the proper part. The database needs that to get the list of parts unless you have the exact part number.
