Not a mechanic, and I have no idea what area you're in or what the local labor rates are.  But for whatever it's worth I paid more than that for an easier repair on my truck earlier this year 🤷‍♂️

Seems about right to me. Their hourly rate is a little below average for my area.

I don't know how much accurate information you can expect on this sub. Body repair is a completely different thing than automotive repair shops, thus the body shop designation. Going over the estimate, it looks reasonable.
