Our Scratch Repair Pricing Guide
At Basco Collision, we understand that vehicle scratches—whether minor or deep—can be frustrating.
While every repair is unique, we have created an approximate pricing guide to help you understand
the typical time and cost range for scratch repairs based on vehicle type.
Note:
These prices are for reference only. Actual repair costs may vary significantly depending on the depth,
location, and extent of damage. A Basco Collision technician must inspect your vehicle in person to
provide an accurate estimate.
| Vehicle Type | Typical Repair Time | Approximate Cost | Approximate Repair Days |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small Car (e.g., Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla) | 10 to 14 Hours | $1,100.00 – $1,500.00 | 2-3 Days |
| SUV (e.g., Ford Escape, Jeep Cherokee) | 12 to 14 Hours | $1,200.00 - $1,700.00 | 3-4 Days |
| Pickup Truck | 12 to 16 Hours | $1,200.00 - $2,000.00 | 3-5 Days |
| Luxury Vehicle (E.g., Lincoln, BMW, Mercedes) | 14 to 16 Hours | $1,400.00 - $2,000.00 | 3-5 Days |
If the scratches are more like GOUGES, or the panel has multiple scratches, you can add an extra 1-2 hours to repair these at our typical labor rate.
Bumper Repairs: All You Need to Know
For decades, collision repair facilities have routinely repaired plastic bumpers. These repairs were straightforward, cost-effective, and safe. Over the past five years, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) have significantly transformed the way we evaluate and repair bumper damage.
Bumper Repairs Are No Longer Always Safe:
Many modern vehicles feature advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), including blind spot sensors and radar devices, which are typically installed just behind or close to the bumper cover. These sensors rely on precise calibration and unobstructed signal transmission to function properly. Even minor repairs—such as filling gouges or repainting—can interfere with sensor performance.
Please Note:
While we continue to offer expert bumper repairs, any damage near ADAS components may require bumper replacement to ensure proper sensor function and compliance with OEM standards. All bumper repairs or replacements must be evaluated in person by one of our estimators. We do not adhere to generic pricing or repair assumptions when ADAS systems are involved.
Bumper Painting Costs
| Paint Type | Estimated Cost Range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Finish | $750.00 - $1,000.00 | Does not include bumper removal or trim disassembly (e.g., Molding, fog lamps, Grills) |
| Tri-Coat/Pearl and Tinters | Up to $1,500.00 | Includes Specialty tinters and multi-staged application |
*These prices are for painting the bumper cover only. They do not include labor for removing the bumper from the vehicle or disassembling trim components. Final pricing may vary based on vehicle type, color complexity, and OEM requirements.
