$150 - $200 per panel sounds right.... not including fixing dents tho.... don't know if it include sanding down and prepping.

Shop retail price roughly guard $200, blend $100 plus gst comes to $337.5.
Then door will need to be stripped at $60+ and guard at $15+ which comes to $84.3
Total: $421.8.
Repairs will be more.
Add another $15 if a door mould need to be re-backed.

what about just getting something recleared?

If theres nothing wrong with the clear and you just want it gloss'd up, then get it cut and polished. If the clear is damaged in some way, it will most likely need to be repainted. Very rare you purely clear over old paint. It can darken up the colour also and look wrong to adjacent panels. Maybe $100 a panel? Noones ever asked me to do it.
