Default body shop qoute

ive had a qoute of £365 to repair ,respray and refit my rear bumper and to respray and fit a sti high level spoiler.
its buy a subaru approved garage with a 3 year warrenty
the car is Mica black so its black with a heavy gold flake.
does this sound about right or would i be riped off???

the only thing that worrys me is that with it being a heavy flake would another garage be able to match it up??

That sounds reasonable, especially for metallics.

Can't comment about matching, but a reputable bodyshop ought to be able to do it

Sounds good for an approved garage, ive had some bits sprayed in the past with that alone coming to £200, no repairing.

Had a new bumper and rear wing repair and respray in Mica black by local bodyshop at a cost of just over £1000(I wasn't paying-other guys fault)so this seems OK.
The colour match was spot on.
