Frequently asked questions
What should an auto body repair invoice include?
A professional auto body invoice should include: shop name and contact info, customer name and vehicle details (year, make, model, VIN), itemized labor hours and rate, parts list with costs, paint and materials charges, sublet work (glass, alignment), tax, total due, and insurance claim number if applicable.
How much does auto body repair typically cost?
Costs vary by repair type: minor dent removal runs $75–$500, bumper repair $300–$1,500, fender repair $500–$2,000, full collision repair $2,000–$10,000+. Paint jobs range from $500 for a single panel to $3,000–$5,000 for a full respray. Always itemize so customers understand each charge.
Should I separate labor and parts on my invoice?
Always. Insurance companies require itemized breakdowns of labor hours, parts (OEM vs aftermarket), paint materials, and sublet charges. Even for cash customers, detailed invoices build trust and reduce disputes about pricing.
How do I invoice insurance companies vs cash customers?
Insurance invoices need a claim number, adjuster info, itemized line codes, and photos. Cash customers get a simpler invoice but still need itemized labor, parts, and materials. For insurance work, follow the insurer's supplement process for additional charges discovered during repair.
What labor rate should I use for auto body work?
Body labor rates range from $50–$75/hr depending on your market. Paint labor runs $50–$65/hr. Mechanical labor is $80–$120/hr. Frame work is $80–$100/hr. Check your local market rates and what insurance companies are paying in your area.
