Rearended

[RTmiata]

No one was hurt but I got rear ended sitting at a stop sign. Who wants to take a bet on how much it costs to fix? I think it's gonna be expensive but some friends disagree saying 4-5k I find that highly doubtful. https://imgur.com/a/qGEhz

Glad nobody was hurt.

Hard to say without pics. If more than one body panel was damaged the cost adds up really fast.

Doesn't look that serious, but I'm not an expert.

Bumper, 1x sidemarker, 1x taillight, and maybe the whole rear quarterpanel?!! I dont know if they're going to repair the quarter panel or if they'll replace it though. It seems the whole panel goes all the way to A pillar? I say $7-10K... not an expert ofc.

I took it to a family friend that runs a paint and body shop. Just from me dropping it off and doing the initial walk around he was already talking about replacing the whole rear quarterpanel but I do not know what all that involves. It will be Monday before they can tear into it.

Oh wow somehow I missed the rear quarter panel damage, yeah definitely a decent chunk of change.

Can't really tell from the pic, but looks like an S10 or a Ranger.

Nice beard.

Doesn't look terrible but I would say 5 to 7k. Quarter will be replaced means cutting and welding. Get Dimisheard value, glad u r okay

Sorry that happened! Glad everyone is ok. I suspect that it will be more than you first thought to repair. I was told that a car must be repaired to the point where not only does it appear undamaged, but that the crumple zones and protective nature of the shell will perform as designed as well. Good luck, hope it is back like new soon!

had this happen to me but was dead square in the middle.

14k, if done right. Your trunk floor is bent, you'll need an entirely new side panel, unibody pull, most likely a tail light, deck lid, plus paint and labor to just start.

go to an insurance "recommended" body shop, all day 7 or 8k.
