Default accident follow-up

Yea so that little accident ended up being pretty big.Like i said before nothing was really damaged bad and i was only going about 10mph, but i got a little bit of the hood, front bumper, and fender. So a friend of mine came out, who does body work and who going to fix this for me, estimated it would cost about $2600 and take roughly a week. So that's definatley putting a little hold on the 350 I was looking into getting lol.

****ty man

my problem was worse though.
my car actually caught on fire and I plan on rebuilding it this year.
Car actually still looks good but I have to rebuild the engine and new materials for inside but I think I am more excited to start working in it than the fact that my poor car is out of commision.

Engine caught on fire

thats an awfully high estimate, jeez. my mom's minivan had the whole right rear side replace and repainted for $1100. what all is damaged on yours? i know you can get a hood, nose, fender, and whatever else youll need for under $500 from a junkyard. you can sand and primer it yourself for under $100. all you would need is the paint done, which should be under $400. shop around. just because a friend does it doesnt mean its the cheapest

2600 too much sounds like a con, try another place and see what they charge.

p.s. don't mention what other place was gonna charge if you choose a different person. or fix it yourself.
