Have any of you had a shop replace a quarter panel before? What was the cost? I might need to have a quarter panel replaced on my Duster project. And I was thinking about maybe just having the panel replaced and primed for now. Then later on having the car all painted at once.
THANKS

FWIW, my Dakota was whacked from the rear a couple of weeks ago and required the right side bed skin to be replaced. I would say this is a little easier than a Quarter Panel, the insurance estimate had 10 hours labor for replacing the panel. That did not include preping for paint or paint, just the R&R of the bed skin.

The panel itself will most likely run about $180-$200. Add to that the labor to hang it and prep it for color, another $700-$900, depending on where you live.
