Default Parts cost

There is some rust on both of my quarter panels of my stealth R/T and when i went to get an estimate it was 600 bucks, with out the paint over the top, just for the sheet metal and labor. For 429.95 bucks i can get two new quarter panels from 3SX, but alot of people told me they are a pain to install so would it still cost more overall to buy new ones for 400 bucks plus install, or should i just have the body shop patch my existing panels?
Just wondering what you all thought

Myself i would just buy the new ones not because of the price but because you kno they would be dont perfectly. If you kno what I mean. I am not trying to say the body shop isnt good because they are great and they are professionals but if you could get the new ones and get them put on that is what i would do.

I'm not really sure the cost but if you have the parts and everything then the instalatoin shouldnt be to much. I mean its just 2 parts bolted on. I will ask around and see what they charge around here and get back to ya.
