How long does it take to do these car repairs / maintenance activities?

This is for a project i'm working on



Body Work (6 to 12 inch wide dent)

Brake replacement

Paint Job

Suspension replacement

tire change

tire maintenance (alignment/rotation)

Tune up

Windshield replacementHow long does it take to do these car repairs / maintenance activities?
1. Depending on where the dent is and if it is repairable or the panel must be replaced, around 3-5 days



2. Complete brake job all the way around takes about 2-3 hours at the most $400 on average



3. A complete paint job done properly will take about 2 weeks. That is assuming no body work needs to be done. No less than $2500 for a paint job only



4. Complete suspension replacement will take about a day and a half of solid work. $3000 on average



5. Changing all four tires takes about an hour $600 on average



6. An alignment takes about an hour $70 on average



7. A tune up depends on the car, but 4-6 hours on average $400 on average



8. Windshield takes about 2 hours. $275 on average
