How much would you estimate my car repair?

Posted by admin on March 28, 2011

So yesterday I went to a drive thru but they were closed. There was also a delivery truck blocking the exit of the drive through lane. So I backed up, by my front passenger side wheel went up onto a curb. It was not a normal height curb either, but about a 8 in high mega-curb.

Car is a 2004 Honda Accord. The piece in question can be seen pretty clearly in this picture.

http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.gallagher.com/honda_accord_2004/2004_honda_accord_side_view.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.gallagher.com/honda_accord_2004/index.htm&h=356&w=700&sz=45&tbnid=MUtyCL3mIs7daM:&tbnh=71&tbnw=140&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dhonda%2Baccord%2B2004&zoom=1&q=honda+accord+2004&usg=__sIe9DzpsFFfb9useAZUASlViCDw=&sa=X&ei=lM-GTea6G5CftweG7rWxBA&ved=0CCsQ9QEwAA.

It’s that bit between the wheel well and the front door, only on the passenger side. That strip appears to have caved in on itself and one side is folded in. There is now a gap from that strip to the door. Also, the actual wheel well itself appears to have sustained some damage.

I’m a dumba** for that accident and am pissed about it. I don’t really care about the paint chips. How much would you estimate the repair to the frame? Thanks

That car is a unibody and has no frame. If you bent the bottom of the front fender you’re probably looking at getting a new fender painted to match. Depending where you go and what parts you buy, could be $400-$1000.
