Cab Corner And Paint Repair ???$$$

Does anybody have any idea approximately how much it would cost to do the following repairs on a Chevy S-10:

Put in 2 new cab corners and paint them to match the color of the truck?
Already Bought Cab Corners (those little things were almost $40 each)

Fix a footlong scratch and re-paint a rust spot about the size of a dollar bill on the bottom of the door and a few little touchups?

IDK if the color would help but its QuickSilver

Where I live that would cost me around $1400 - $1600 Canadian.

It's not cheap for quality work.
Just from the sound of it that would be around 7 hours time on just the patch panels.
They'll sandblast the rust patch, which is only 15 minuites.
Then the scratches, filler and paint

If you know someone that can weld you can keep the costs down by removing the box, cutting out the cab corners. Then lay the new panel in and get him to weld it.

Plus do all the prep work that you can.

If the shop will let you just masking the truck off will save you about an hours expense.

I took about 4 days to prep my Blazer after I had the patch panels welded in. As you can see it turned out great.

Well said Overboard,although your price quote might be a little high.Although nobody can give a price without personally seeing the truck first.Your Blazer looks good.Better get some mud flaps on it or your rockers will get blasted,along with everything esle.
