I scratched my friend's car with scissors, there are about three scratches on 2 of the doors, how much will it cost me to fix it?
Real answers only please.

It depends on the car and whether its metallic or not and what colour it is.
You are looking at at least £400 but it can easily go past a grand!
I wont ask what made you do it !

If you haven't gone completely through the paint - ie. down to the base metal - get some t-cut and polish the scratches out.
If they're deeper you need to have each panel taken off and resprayed - depending on the size of car and type of paint figure about 500 quid total.
I assume it was an accident, or else you're not much of a friend!

It depends on where you live . if in the UK the further south you live is more expensive than the north for example . 2 doors / blow into the wing / rear quarter for colour match will cost you £200 in the north east but in the south it will cost as much as £350 add an extra £50 to the job if its pearlesent paint ! i am a paint sprayer in the n/east of England with 25 years experience

yes i think you would be looking about £500 for a full respray, but if it is only three scraches you could just have the doors resprayed if you go to a good painter and he can match the colour very well might be more like £100.

Figure on $200 for each door for a cheap job and $350 for a good job. Pretty expensive scissors, huh?

There are many companies that now come to your house and do the work there and then (Chips Away etc.). I paid fifty quid to have scratches taken away from both bumpers. They did a great job on a metallic paint car.

It depends on the vet and how much it moves around, if it moves around alot you will need more paint.......
Oh sorry, did you say car? I thought you said cat.....

do you need a re-spray or are you being vain.
touch up kits nowadays include the primer and hard finish paint.
i paid 6k for my paint job, but it was a ferrari.
do what i do buy 2 cars one for maximum pleasure, one as a work horse, that you can sling you shopping in and rubbish
goodluck
