Scraped Door and Quarter Panel

z80x86 · 10-14-2014, 12:17 AM

Not a good day; my car clipped the wall on a ramp in a parking garage. Does anyone have any idea what a reasonable price to have this fixed might be? Not sure if I should go through insurance.

The rear bumper is unharmed, and the door opens ok (maybe a little louder than before).

Insurance. Do it. The premium increase will be equal or less than your out of pocket cost, IMO.

Probably going to have to replace the dog leg and door shell. Easily $1200 for a quality repair.
