    Cheers Bazz! No clue where you are in the country, but you've two panels damaged. Rule of thumb (And will vary from bodyshop to bodyshop) - 350 per panel, or a SMART repairer about 100-120 per panel.

    Would you be able to 'SMART repair' that wing? The dent looks to have knocked the shape off altogether.

    Kinda, but it just takes an age. The SMART repair goes out the window, I usually end up reforming the metal, skimming with filler, and painting as usual. If the wing is very bad, I'd usually just try to source a wing, and let the customer choose if they want a pattern part to save money, or a genuine wing.
