Default Helllp please!!!

I want to apologize ahead of time. Even though this is the 2is forum I posted this thread here because of the inactivity in the is first generation section. Anyways I picked this is300 up from a friend of mine after he got in an accident. I want to make it my project car. I was wondering how much it will cost for me to repair this damage. In my opinion it is very minor. Let me hear your thoughts.

hard to say how much it will cost as other things not seen can be damaged

best bet is to get estimate from a body shop everyone everywhere charges differently and Looking at the picture we couldnt really tell you if there was any frame damage or any other damage other than the hood headlights fenders and front bumper. That alone labor and paint you're probably already looking at 2K at the least

without seeing any repair behind the support, just looking at fenders, hood , bumper headlights, about 2200 is my estimate.

need an estimate from a body shop to be clear. You never know if there was frame damage or other underlying damage. If my bumper cost me 875 for parts and labor not even counting my GFX lip, I think this can easily run you 2.5 to4 thousand.
