[QUOTE="svtfocus2cobra, post: 16310148, member: 21786"] Those charges are bogus. At all of the shops I have worked for we charged nothing for the pre/post scans and disconnecting the battery is built into the labor times if the job even warrants it. They are just looking for ways to take your money. I didnt realize that was a brand new Ram so are those tailgates Aluminum now? If so then the labor time goes up to repair that dent but that should only be about 3-4hrs of labor. A lot of shops go crazy high with their estimates with Aluminum but we always treated it mostly the same because it was never all that much more difficult for us to repair it with the techs we had. It usually only warrants an extra hour or two of labor over repairing steel panels. The emblems are pricey but they can be retaped because of their size. My quote would be higher after seeing that but $2k is still way too much. [/QUOTE]
