most likely over $1000. Had someone back into my front fender. They replaced the fender, took the little dent out of the door panel, but had to repaint the whole passenger side of the car and blend the paint. Estimates ranged from $1200-$1400. Ended up being right at $1400.

Recently had someone try to break into my car. They are replacing the door and trim and painting. Estimate is just shy of $2k.

Getting your car repaired properly won't be cheap. Parts are cheap, but quality paint work isn't.

most likely your insurance will have a door skin put on and that runs between 500-1000 bucks total. just shop around, its common sense
