fixing the deer damage?

Hit a deer last night and dented in my drivers front fender. It's bent in pretty bad right around the side marker light and its right on the crease in the fender. Do yall think It would be better to have a body shop somehow bend it back out or would I be better off just getting a new fender? How much should I expect to pay for a new front fender?

New fender. You should be able to get one between about $100-$150. Try www.carnet.com and www.nextgenparts.com.

Your lucky. I just spent $1700 getting my damage fixed after i swearved out of the way of a deer and slammed a guard rail. On a good note though, a friend did the work and threw in a great paint job too.
