I think its more of the bed I"m worried about. The fender has plastidip on it and is a easy fix. I just was trying to guess how much paint repair would be for the factory black.
Most shops won't paint the body panels without removing all of the trim, with or without the plastidip, most likely you wont find a shop that will just mask off your fender flare. This is why it may be better to get a new/used one. Also chances are some of the clips could be broken under the flare form that inpact. Sorry bro, just giving you bad news, but maybe I'm wrong and things wont be as bad :)

If its a reliable shop, I dont think that is unreasonable.. Remember, if possible, always get a few bids.

That sounds like a reasonable price, especially if its a good shop. There may be small dents there too that require filling (hard to tell from a pic). And with any clear coat finish, the whole panel will need to be cleared, even though only the damaged area needs to have the paint spotted in. And with any metallic finish, the painter's skill comes into play when matching the repaired area to the factory finish. UH OH , better skip MAACO
