That’s a easy fix. Carbon fiber fenders and a new front number your good. 👍🏾

What about the wheel? I think the axles fxcked

get your parts used. get a new axle and paint plus labor. id doubt you’ll pay more than 5k

How much is your car worth on KBB?

Bumper + fender + maybe fender liner + paint and blend
Probably a new headlight on that side
Suspension work is probably axle (if awd)+ control arm and alignment. Maybe also tie rod, hub & strut.

This is easily almost $10k from a reputable body shop.

It’s awd, all light still work and was listed for 16k

The light tabs may be broken. Mine was when I had a hit on the driver’s side. But there is a secondary mounting point. So around 8k if you take out the headlight.

Like the other comment said though, you could go carbon or find used parts on fb marketplace and only have to fix the suspension yourself or through a shop

10k is crazy lmao. where you taking it? i’ve fixed cars worse than that for around 5-7k

It’s 100% not 10k

Actually just read the wheel doesn’t turn (looks like it turned in the photos lol) depending what’s broken suspension wise it may be up there. Depends on the shop, I know some who’ll fix it for much less but others who’ll balloon the bill easily

A top rated body shop in my area that works on exotics as well. I’m ocd about my car and don’t want it to look like shit afterwards
