It will cost for this to get repaired. No shops are open today for me so just trying to see how much my friend is going to have to pay. He rear ended me and said he was paying for it straight cash.

PS: trunk doesnt close, right light is chipped, side is really dented in, and the paint is peeling.

theres nothing a bungee cord can't fix lol. it really depends on who you take it to because all mechanics are different and will set different prices.

Well the place I do go to is actually fair. They dont screw people over and have vary fair prices. Plus my friends dad works there so I know like everyone that works there. If I get a new bumper how much should that cost plus some touch up paint for the trunk, and dents on the side of my car fixed.

The shop will prolly just get it from a local junkyard and repaint it. To me that looks expensive to repair...plus you may have to get a new trunk. And the rear fenders could be a little bent. You wont know until they do a good inspection. Your friend is gonna have a empty wallet.

And how did that happen?! Looks like it was a truck.

If you have to get a new trunk and they have to do any work on the sides you are looking at around $1,200. If all you need is a new bumper it should be less than $500.

Okay just though I should tell you guys.

Got the estimate: New bumper, new tail light, new trunk, new quarter pannels, the inside of the trunk is all bent up, and needs new pain all around that corner. Total cost $4027.99.

And the story. I was following my friend and my friend was following me. The person in front stopped at a stop sign, I stopped behind him, and my friend behind me didn't even hit the breaks. He hit me in a 95 gmc SUV (dunno what kind) doing only 25. Thats about it.
