well the quarter panel is going to be like 2k to get fix unless they can pull it out which they probably wont be able too. 7500 seems alittle high to be with all the damage

eh not worth it with all the damage it has.

atleast 3k-5k will be spent to fix the damages, when I crashed my car the quarter panel which was dented (not badly) alone cost a lot to fix

I say it's a good deal. My car has almost twice the mileage and is worth 10k. If you know where to look, you can get that damage fixed for ~$1500.

It's supposed to just snap into place. It's possible that the grille was cracked when the damage occurred to the lip. I'd just unhook them when you go to pick the car up and fix it when you fix the lip since you may need a new grille.

At first I didn't think it was a good deal but.....with new tires and getting all the damage fixed.....that might run you (rough estimate) $3,000 So that would be about $10,500 total invested. If the interior is good and everything mechanical is good then after all the work it's not really a bad deal. Good luck!
