My left front fender of my 99 civic ex was banged up do to a deer thinking
he needed to run across the road at the same I was going down it.

The body shop wants 130 for the fender and 600 dollars to paint it and put
it on.

Can't you buy a fender that is the same color (silver) and just put it on?

Yes, at a scrap yard. The best part . . It's pre-weathered and will be
the same color as yours.

sounds like alot for paint.... The part price is a little high too, I got
mine for $110 (canadian) a year and a half ago.

Absolutely! At another body shop. That's an absolutely ridiculous price for
paint and labor. Get a quote from another body shop. Or two quotes.
