    Went down to my car this morning and seen this. Any idea how much this would be to get fixed?

    It really depends, minimum you're talking a few hundred, depends how good you want it fixed to be honest. What year is the car? Dont see them being able to pull that out with the fact some of it is along the crease, I could be wrong though as I am not a panel beater. May be able to pull the bottom part out (From wheel up to the fold / crease,) then fillers to get the contours and kink correct before respraying the complete panel. Also any idea at all what happened it because for it to kink like that along the fold took a decent bit of force, I mean someone just leaning against it didnt do that to it, unless they had something solid in their pocket, and ran at great speed at it! But theres no severe scrape or scuff marks as if another car was turning and caught it, no shoe print or smear if it was someones boot, was it a wheely bin or something like that, was it windy last night, did you hear anything?

    Looks nasty that. Probably way beyond what paintless dent removal could do.

    I'd say it'll costs several hundred Euros to fix. Only a bodyshop could give you an accurate estimate however.

    is that a k12 micra?

    worst case imo proably 2-300 to supply, paint and fit a spurious wing.

    possibly half that if you would accept that wing beaten and filled.

    Thanks. No idea what happened, was parked outside our apartment block. That's the passenger side so couldn't have been another car.

    I should have you lads pricing jobs for me. With them prices i could retire. Its a popular colour so you could get a secondhand wing. Or if i was doing that job i wouldnt charge more than 250 and thats inc a new wing
