You are looking at a minimum of $5000. That is a lot of sheet metal and materials (don't forget the paint supplies which are expensive) are going to be in the $2500-$3000 range. You ought to call your insurance. This is what you pay them for.
This is definitely not a DIY job. There is a lot of welding that has to happen here, replacing the door skins and rear fenders, etc. You'd be lucky if you got away with a $5K bill seeing as how you have to replace the whole left side of the car.

All the body shops that looked at it said that they can fix the doors and the rear quarter panel but the fender im on my own as far as finding one because its aluminum. Anybody else can help me on finding some decent prices for body shops PM or Post
