Suspension Repair Cost?

    I'm after hitting a massive rock on my way to work, shattered the alloy, sent the car up into the air and I think it's done a number on the suspension.There's negative camber and the wheel is pushed back a bit in the wheel well, it's also cracked the wheel arch liner from the impact.

    I'm going to buy a whole new set of alloys (no more 19 inch Pretorias on my Mk7 Golf), just going with some standard Golf Alloys.

    Assuming the control arm is bent, tie rods too, what am I looking at repair wise? I couldn't see anything obviously damaged, nothings sheered off, suspension is still intact, strut seems okay, spring somehow isn't cracked. I hit it head on so at least it's the way the suspension is supposed to work.

    Ignoring the cost of alloys, what am I looking at for the suspension?
