Well..it happened. Paint/dent damage.
I don't want to get into it because I'm still sour from what happened.
What kind of repair should I be expecting with this? Will be going to a couple of body shops soon. I'm traveling right now and won't be able to take it to the dealership that I trust albeit it pricey as hell. Mainly just want it repainted and fix the cosmetic. I can live with the dent |

It could be filled and sanded down once the dents are pulled and leveled
If you're wanting a replacement fender and door that's where the price will skyrocket. Or replacement fender+ repairing the door. Most dealerships don't have body shops it's usually outsourced to a certified shop.

How much should I expect it to cost if I went the fill route? I don't think the damage is bad enough for me to commit to replacing the fender and door |

I would get it bondo’d and painted. I’m going to guess about $2,000 - $2,500.

Was able to get it to a shop earlier than I expected. Got a recommendation from a friend on the shop. Checked them out. Seems legit. He said he should be able to pop out the dent and paint it. Got a quote for roughly 800.
