Dent and paint fix.

I'd just sand down the entire rocker panel and bedline that section now that the paint is scraped off.

 

Rhino line both sides with match color.

 

I dig your style.

 

Sooo... I got an estimate from a local body shop down the street... are they overcharging me?!!!

 

Sliders would have prevented that

 

Quote from my local body shop on my works newer Silverado was 3k! Damage was more pronounced than yours but maybe were being overcharged!

 

I'm not a body shop guy, but grew up with a family that owns one, we used to do side work (clean up, prep, tape) for cash when we were in teens when they needed extra hands. Door jambs, rocker panels, corners in general, were tricky fixes that needed a pro. So yeah, a small amount of damage in the wrong/right spot, can cost a lot of time/money to fix.

 

This. That area is also really solid so it will take more work. I think the pricing is fair.

 

Another good point.
Seems to be common- it's one of the many services/industries where many/most customers automatically think they're getting screwed, unless it's free.
Just because someone's cousin Eddie Bondo'd his old truck, spray painted it, and then totaled a year later, when his drunk ass ran it in to a ditch, doesn't make him an equivalent.
