looks like your suspension is screwed up. i'd say 4-6k depending on the body shop

From what I hear when the frame is bent forget it. It's a loss cause. I'd say your looking around the ball park of 5K. rear quarter panels are expensive to repair.

nobodys gonna try to fix it lol. rebending a frame is a liability issue. car will never drive the same again, and if something in the frame causes you to get into another accident, you could sue them.

I think Scratch-X will take care of most of that

Bummer.
Good luck with the replacement.

sorry to see this man....this is going to cost you A LOT (i'd say 5-8k)...and this is why you NEED insurance especially for new cars...parts/labor is going to be 2 b!tches in a b!tch boat...i think they might consider this totaled b/c the frame is bent like people have already mentioned...if
