I just bought my accord, had some minor damages/paint issues, I'm calling in a couple mobile mechanics to estimate, curious as to how much it will cost, after checking out these pics, how much do you guys believe it will cost?

Corner that needs body work

Spot that needs painting

Front of bumper area that need painting

2 holes that need filled in front bumper

Bumper off on corner

Area that needs painting

and at the bottom my door is creaking when it opens, it's not properly aligned so it'll have to be adjusted.

Thanks!

Close to $2000 is what I would guess, if not more. To get my quarterpanel, rear door and bumper fixed, it was like $2300.

Why not go to a body shop and ask? They give free estimates.

Wouldn't it be cheaper if you bought a new front + rear bumper and replaced it yourself? But you might have to go to a body shop to get the metal part above the rear bumper fixed. You could get a second hand bumper for cheaper than a new one. And you might be able to sell your damages bumper as well... I've had friends who sold their damaged bumpers for around $100.

The damage to the rear fender / bumper. During April I had somebody back into me and cause damage in the exact same location. The damage was a little more sever. The dent was larger and it took some paint off. Body shop charged $1400 to fix it.

Im not sure if this is a good price or not but, its not like I paid for it anyway.

Unpainted bumpers are what, $150-200 for ebay stuff? + at least $300 or more in paint work for each so that's probably $1000 just for the bumpers.

got everything fixed, including painting on my 2 other cars for $800. I'll post pictures of the results tomorrow.

Last pic looks like as if the panel is re painted color doesn't match at all.
