Hi. Been looking for a 348 or 355 for a while. Ball park parts cost to fix something like this? control arm spindle fender thanks! Image Unavailable, Please Login
LOL. Estimates to replace and paint the front hood on my 2014 Cayman S were between $3200 ans $5500 depending on the shop and that was a bolt on repair. For this $10 to $15k would be more like it. Better to ask in the 355 section. You might want to look at this thread to see what's involved.
Most cars after 2010 use aluminium parys making it prohibitive. I feel tbe estimate of 5 to 6k is fair. 2 to 3 k in parts, 1.5k in panel swap and wheel alignment and about 800 to 1000 for repainting bumper and fender.
P.S. I have rebuilt 11 Ferraris from bodyshell up including 2 x 348s and 1 x 355. The part I have leftover was from a rear-ended 355 Berlinetta for which the US suppliers sent the part for a Spider by mistake. Unexpected parts besides a wishbone and Fender here could be the wheel bearing/wheel hub/shock. Most available from Eurospares at very reasonable prices. For some reason, I have never understood why some US car breakers list used parts from crashed cars at 20% higher prices than NEW part prices from EU suppliers. I have seen certain parts listed on Ebay for the past 4 years.
Price comparison. When you add shipping from the UK to the USA and customs duty the $500 price difference between Eurospares and All Ferrari Parts will pretty much be gone. So $4k plus for the upper quarter, now add the hub, $1000 new from Eurospares, and control arm, $500, that's at least $5500US for new parts, if you can get them. Now start adding time and materials, taxes. And don't forget the bumper repair. I can't getting out of a US shop for less that $10k. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Without inspecting, who knows. I'm guessing 20 degrees of toe in is more than just an alignment. How much more in parts in labor if the rear subframe needs replacement?
I would expect it to cost between $15K and $20K unless you're doing all the work yourself. If the gearbox is damaged (a distinct possibility), it could be double that.
The body panel is not much of an issue at all. I'm much more concerned about the angle of that wheel. That looks like bent parts..that is expensive. If it were me..I would be calling that entire suspension corner..
