Default Paint repair help and quote plz...

So I've got some major chipping issues with my '06 A3. I've tried to get Audi to repair these rusted spots, but of course, they again state that there needs to be perforation. I can't take the fact that it looks like this, so I'm considering putting out the :$ myself to fix it all and be done with.

Can you guys tell me what kind of damage my pockets will be looking at to fix this?

BEWARE: Photo may be disturbing to some viewers.

You're gonna get different quotes from most of the body shops areound here (Montreal).

That being said, I wouldn't let 3/4's of the body shops here near my car with a hose and wash-mit, let alone a sander or spraygun.

Best advice I can offer: The only shop I would trust to do any paintwork on a car that's important to me is Auto Bugatti on Cote-de-Liesse. They're not cheap at all, but they do excellent work. Jeebussss (another member on here) had work done to his '07 A4 following my advice and he was more than pleased with the work.

I was also recommended to automotion on de maisoneuve. A lot of habs players get their whips detailed there. But again, it's quite pricey, and I'm not looking for a cheap method.
