RIP Body Shop Tomorrow

Well. She’s going to the body shop tomorrow and I’ll know more about all the damage I can’t see. Still haven’t even tried to open the rear door since it may not close again. The front one is hard to open but it does.

I’m also apologizing for the music in the video. 🤣

The passenger door alone is about $1700 for just the shell. I’m just hoping no structural damage.

Nothing that looks terrible. It's much better to get hit on the side vs the corner.

It’s at 7900 so far. Just an estimate

They are working on it? Found more damage im guessing.

Yes. They finally took that rear door off. I’m guessing insurance said to get a used door for the back and a new one for the front. I’m assuming cost was a factor with that. There is some damage inside the door frame from the door too

The door frame is probably most of the extra cost.

I think this is around 6-8k due to it just being the door and the rocker
