i have some damage on the rear wheel arch on the passengers side of my si 2000. How much should it cost for me to get it fixed and painted if I bring the part to a body shop?

I found the part here:

Will this work for my trim?

Thanks.

 

should probably post this in the paint and body section, as for your question I would get rid of the rubber pieces that is suppose to protect that arch from stone chips because they collect a lot of dirt and and will eventually cause corrosion, the rust I see in your pic is just surface rust so there is no reason to disturb the factory welds by cutting out and rewelding, the dents can be worked out from the inside of the panel, depending on where you go probably cost you around $800

 

I have, no one has answered my question about the fabrication part i could buy.

 

you dont need the replacement panel, why would you pay someone to weld in a panel thats not needed? Those replacement panels are hit and miss, like it says in the description "must be altered to fit"

 

I agree. The damage can be fixed. They would most likely weld a tab or stud to the damaged area. Then yank out the dents. Its not that hard, just time consuming and needs to be done by a professional with experience.
