Damage estimate?
Hey all, my iroc suffered some body damage the other day. I am putting the car away for the winter, but I am trying to see how much I will need to save up to get her fixed in the spring. Thanks for the input.

Shop shouldn't charge more than $300 to paint and blend it. Maybe they'd fill that gouge for free.

Thanks. That is cheaper than i thought. Rim came flying off while I was driving. I was in the process of pulling over to fix it too.
