I've got a buddy in VA that owns a body shop and does alot of repair jobs for the local used car dealerships. I've been up there enough to see alot of different brands and year model cars go through there and based on what I've seen I agree with Texmark, you never know what your gonna find nowdays. That said after seeing what he pays , his cost, for paint and materials if the dents don't just "pop out" I'd estimate nearly $1000 just for the paint and other supplies, not to mention several hours of labor to repair the damage, mask everything, and shoot it. Heck I called the other day and enough of the cheaper single stage stuff, that's not clearcoated, was gonna run me nearly $300 with the primer, hardner, etc. I'd venture a guess if my buddy were to do it you wouldn't leave the shop for less than $3000, and that's only if the parts could be shot and properly blended to match. If it wasn't able to be matched, and I wouldn't accept a job that didn't especially on an almost new truck, then you'd be looking at even more than that to pain the whole truck. Just remember insurance companies are rip offs most of the time. get three estimates, make them pay, and go with the one you want.
