Its a pig of a job to do right. You're talking megabucks. It's not a bolt on part.

How bad is it?

More creases than huge damage. Some near window and roof line. Hard to sort perfectly I would say. How much in worst case scenario?

I don't rightly know but I wouldn't be surprised if it was €2k. There's a lot of labour.
Maybe someone more in the know might let you know.

Not sure of cost, but its one if the worst panels in a car to repair so I'm
guessing it wont be cheap. Alternatively, if you get a cheap quote for this panel repair ask to see some examples of their panel beating work, lot of cowboys out there.
