Probably a couple thousand would be my best guess; if it didn't damage the engine. I got into an accident that dented a small section in my car and it's going to cost me about $1200. And obviously, insurance will go up since it will hold a salvage title.
Hello, thinking of buying a car that was in a wreck today but I was wondering if anyone had a ballpark figure on how much something like this would cost? Either for a do it yourself or at a shop? Also, does anyone know a cheap place to find car parts online? Or in Vegas/LA

Avoid that vehicle.
I was an appraiser for a few years.
Both airbags have been set off. This indicates that enough damage was done to the uni-body that a serious amount of work is required to restore the vehicle to a safe level.
MAny shops are capable of this task but it is best to find another vehicle.
Knowing what I know about vehicles, if this one landed in my lap I would pass.
It is best if you find another vehicle to purchase as this one could be trouble down the road for you.
