So while this repair isn’t perfect, it’s pretty darn close. It’s not known how much the customer paid for the repair, but other claims on RivianForums estimate that PDR for similar damage on the R1T ranged between $4,000 and $6,000. And, thankfully, this process didn’t involve cutting and paintwork that could have stretched the undertaking by weeks or months, rather than days.

I had not seen that. Interesting that carriage house sized business found benefit from 21st century automotive design.
