Heard some good news today. The frame and suspension components are all good to go. Nothing is bent and all the damage is cosmetic so to speak.
I hope insurance works out in my favor and just totals it out.

seriously, find an LS at a yard and cut the quarter panel out for about 100 bucks.
Just remember to tack it every 6", then 4", then 2" , as not to heat up and warp the panel. Finish weld, grind,bodyfiller,sand,prime,paint
I did it on my old SC300..the damage was about the same as yours. ;p
Bodyshops tend to rip people off because they tend to charge top $$ when dealing with ins. companies. Find a private party if its not sumthing u wanna do.
Id help if I were there
Good luck!!
