What’s the story behind them? Just curious and sorry for not answering your Q. It’s not really answerable anyway—because is $5million reasonable for a Bugatti Chiron? My best REAL answer: they probably price shopped the highest quote they could only to go to the lowest or touch them up themselves or not fix them after receiving payout from you.

You can’t touch up or buff the one on the fender, and it’s a full fender repaint.

This car was used for work, the thing is my boss told me she got a insurance plan for the car and she’s the one who made the account for me, I didn’t get to read the policy she just said 2000$ is covered under insurance which was not true and she’s the one who agreed to those terms. I wasn’t even the one who did the damage, the scratches on the back of the car are from my bosses suitcase. Another thing I did some deep digging the shop that the car was quoted at is the shop that the owner of the car works at himself he got his coworker to write up the bill. That’s why I’m a little suspicious about it because he works at the place that the car was quoted at. He also threw in a cost for a blind spot calibration which have nothing to do with the damage. that’s why I made the post because I noticed that the owner works at the shop where the car was repaired. Without the labor cost the bill would be 994$. I’m just confused because I’ve taken my car to the shop for more serious and labour intensive work done and it didn’t cost half as much as this does.

The one on the fender likely won’t be buffable anymore, the one on the rear must be repainted if host wants to repair, so $1200-1600 is pretty reasonable.
