Just got back from two bodyshops, went to go see about getting my front bum=
per fixed after an "oops" I had a while back.  I have to replace the bumepr=
 cover, the right headlight assembly, the right parking light, and the chro=
me trim on the bumper.  Here are my questions:
1=2E  $36 an hour seems a bit out of line for labor costs. Is that par for =
the course?
2=2E  I went to a junkyard, and got a quote for the bumper cover and headli=
ght assembly - $100 for the bumper, $175 for the headlight.  This is great =
savings from the body shop (they want $400 for the bumper and $312 for the =
headlight) but the headlight price seems a bit up there.  Do you know of an=
y place I can get it cheaper?
3=2E  Is there any place I can get the parking light cheaper than the bodys=
hop (charging $29 for it)?

Thanks for all your help.
