oh dang sorry to see! it looks like just a paint refinish unless there is a hefty dent as well. with the quarter panel dented that will cost upwards of $500 alone plus the door and door cap (lower portion). that's just my estimate and it depends on the shop. try to buff out the scratches, and with the car being black it may just hide the dent.

yeah that's a fair bit of money because to do the quarter properly you end up painting half the car since there's no seam til the A-pillar. If they try to blend make sure you see samples of their work first (blending odd colors specifically) because its a tricky thing to have done properly.

I won't accept the car if it looks bad, I'd be the first to make them redo it lol
