Default I broke my strut rod!!!

I made a thread about the strut rod bushings, i finally got the one bolt out using a 3/4" peice of conduit in the wrench. Went to work the other side but broke the strut rod and stripped the bolt. I bent the strut rod back in place and welded the rod which was a pretty bad job... Does anyone know what the mechanic will charge to replace the rear strut rod and remove the stripped bolt? Also im assuming its unsafe to drive the car now?
