Unhappy Banged up the 951.

Yea, to make a long story short, I banged the rear left fender into my own house... Nothing happened to the outside wall, it was just a little scrape against it. Well anyway, here are the pics. What do you guys think the cost for repairs will be? There is a small dent in the fender.

Thanks guys.

$500-1000.

Take the $ you think it will cost, then triple it. Thats about what it usually ends up.

Find an airbrush guy and a paintless dent removal guy, should be no more than $2-$300 for a good refinish (unless the paint scrapes are a LOT deeper than they look in the pictures)

The scrape is all the way down to the primer. I think a complete repaint of the quarter panel is necessary.

See if there is a ChipsAway facility in your area...I've heard they work wonders...
