Well from being in an autobody perspective That door is trash and so is the quarter pannel.To fix that it would be wayyyy over 400-500 bucks new door is around 50-150 then the back quarter is maybe 120 then to pull it then weld then paint your talking thousands. Its possible to fix tho man I can do it.

haha shit i ain't paying anythign to fix it unless my school will do it because they will only charge for the parts

Another note, she didn't "pull out" yet she was still in the drive waiting to cross. The lady was turning into the drive and went to fast, couldn't slow down and hit her car. She had her blinker on and was turning so my gf thought there was enough room to go which there would/should have been since the vehicle was obviously turning, had she not pulled forward across the intersection the lady would have hit her directly on her door instead of behind it...

Ouch...

I do agree that a body shop would charge you a grand or better to fix and paint that mess. I did read that money is tight, so this probably won't help much, however the 2.3 cars are getting cheaper and cheaper. Maybe it would be more cost effective to find one like this one... https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/s...hreadid=127548 ...
and then just part yours back out. I know that it still means money up front, but just a thought.... Good Luck!

Still more than we have For that price we could find a much better car truthfully that's newer and better on gas mileage. We can't look for a new car as there is NO money to spend on one. I may just give her the 1996 Buick Skylark sittin in the yard. Runs good, just needs a battery. It's kinda big though ehh. Either that or our yard car....1987 Chrysler Lebaron Covnertible with the fake wood siding and the 2.2 turbo haha
