My sister is looking at a repo from a bank a friend works at and texted us. Great deal. Low miles. Loaded out.

Here is kicker. There are two scrape on passenger side. Shes not worried about them besides the metal parts exposed. Any ballpark on fixing them or at least stop any potential rust? The scrapes on the plastic fenders are no biggie

Maybe Dlaw can chime in and I can bring it to his shop since he's close..

Thanks

As long as they are not warped in a major manner, should be 350-400 per panel that is damaged.

If she wants if done right the entire right side is going to have to be repainted. Possible to get it blended because it's white, however. 700-1700 is the low and high

That damage isn't bad, but it's crossing multiple panels. $2000 min to do it right.

Fender will probably have to be replaced,front and rear bumper fascias may also have to be replaced. The front door and quarter panel can be fixed.
So I'm guessing $2,000 $2,600 after you figure in parts, body labor, paint and materials.

If it's a edge you better look at the service record. Make sure it doesn't have electrical issues. I know where a loaded limited edge is that I'll let go on the cheap. Every month something new electrical. It's a problem with them.

Based on the wheels and the non matching door handles it is an SE model and not loaded out.

You are super unlucky that it hit all of those different sections. With that much damage across the entire side, O would have to imagine any fix would involve a new paint job.

Stout, you may laugh, however, Miguel has fixed a similar issue with my Yukon. It had small dents like that. One day at his "barn" and blended the black paint. Awesome job and 2 years later still smooth and shiny and repairs are not noticeable. He sprays withou a mask and is high as a mofo! Miguel, my man!!!!
