Chip and scratch repair ?

**mauritiusblue** · 06-11-2002, 04:05 PM

I have some scratches and some chips that are starting to rust on my Honda accord.

I was wondering what the average price was for getting out surface scratches. And chips. The size of the chips are like those you would get from pebbles on the road. Not too big but very noticeable.

I don`t know anything about this stuff and I don`t want to get jipped.

I know its hard to tell without looking but any help would be appreciated..

Thanks in Advance

Thanks for the reply but I don`t want to do it myself.

I`m worried I`ll ruin it. I`d rather have a professional do it...

So how much am I looking at?

Scratches are usually going to need a repaint. Chips can be repaired. Around my area I would guess $125 - 200 depending on the number of chips.

However, since you have some scratches I would recommend you go to a body shop and get a quote on having your hood painted.
