The body shop guys chuckled. Right off the bat the labor rate ($48) is way off. They don't feel the rear quarter is saveable and that its bent up under the vinyl top. If that's the case it'll need a new vinyl top. They feel the door needs a skin. They say blending the paint will require covering way more car than the estimate allows. The shop is going to work something up and get with the local adjuster next week.
Having fun now......
