I like your white grille better than the dark OEM color.

By 'too white' do you mean the color doesn't match?

Im with you on the too white thing. A lady here has a 2k max and the shop here did the same thing to hers when it got repainted. I guess when you get your car repainted you expect things to be looking like factory not painted . So, I can see where you are coming from with it.

I have the estimate from the shop and they charges 3k to fix the front. I hit a woman that stop and BUMP my bad. They replace a lot of stuff in the front passenger side , the only major part they replace was the fromt bumper fascia.. that's it..... but here in Florida they love to screw you when doing that kind of job.
