itll be at least 1500-1800 to replace that quarter panel. It needs to be REPLACED. please dont let anyone tell you they can pull and fix that cause im sure someone on this website will say they can do it or have done something that bad. Dont listen to them please. REPLACE IT.

agreed, you'll need to replace it. i'm gonna say well into the 2500 - 3500 range. it's a lot of work

is it just me or does the wheel look a little crooked too ?

dude .. that it gonna be a lot of work and $.

you'll need to look at the following and see if it is bent.

Rim, knuckle, hub, control arm, and strut, if unsure, replace them all ? this will be at least 1k in parts

who hit you ? if you weren't at fault the other guys insurance should pay for everything. which in most cases something like this would total the car.

Your car is totalled, just get another integra and before the insurance come to get it. They give you time to remove everything.

You can fix that 1/4 but its tons of bondo and waves. Replacing the quarter panel will be your best bet. You also have a lot suspension damage like everyone else said.

Time for a NEW shell or new car. EG and DC parts are interchangable.

i partially will agree with you.

im in no way offending you with quoting you. just adding more info.

i am a production manager in a body shop and deal with this stuff everyday.

yes it is obviously totalled. the insurance company will give you plenty of time to get whatever you want out of the car. but whatever you take out of the car will take away from the check you get back from the insurance company. they will only give you the value of the vehicle before the accident. and if you take things out of the vehicle, that takes away from the value.

you CANNOT fix that quarter panel. im sorry you can but i guarentee you there is hidden damage underneath the outer quarter panel. and id be surprised the suspension damage is probably not too bad. they hold up a lot better on those side impacts than people think.

but yes... i agree. get a new shell and transfer everything over if you have anything worth transfering over.
