Lol, OP if you continue using this forum you will learn to deal with this older crowd. They know their **** and can help you out a ton but you can't let them know you're young and you damn sure can't let them know your parents are funding you in any way.
A better approach would have been simply posting a picture of the damage and seeing what they have to say. Leave ALLLLL of your personal information out of it. All it does is give them avenues to troll you.

They said im looking at minimum $350 for tie rod and installation, $225 for new tire and installation, and whatever the front bumper costs. Do you have any idea what front bumpers do cost? i didnt see it in that link. This is assuming there isnt any hidden damage they havent noticed yet.
You might be able to find one cheaper on partsgeek, but I am unsure of the fitment.

thanks for the info, so if all that is for labor i would have to check how much the tie rod itself costs but the $350 quoted should be about right then.

RH inner tie rod as $148.35
BOTH outer tie rods as: $74.88 (So one is $37.44)
Parts: $185.79 + Tax
For labor it shows:
Just under a half an hour for the outer tie rod (0.40/1.00)
And (0.20/1.00) for each inner tie rod.
So if the shop lets you acquire your own parts, you really shouldn't be paying too much in labor. About an hours worth depending on the shops given hourly rate (The quote I posted has a standard labor hour charge of $80. Most shops are somewhere in that vicinity but sometimes upwards of $120)
AllData is a standard Automotive service and labor lookup program that many, many shops use to pull their labor times from.

I would seriously check out the wheel bearings, they do not like impacts.
The useless bashing is going to end. Only a dash cam would provide 100% truth and he doesn't seem to have one that he is posting the vid from.

thanks i didnt really see a reason for the bashing. I will make sure to check on the wheel bearings. and yea i do not have a dash cam. It is irrelevant to me whether or not these guys believe what happened. A lot of people came and gave me very useful information in this thread which is exactly what i was looking for.

My thoughts
You crashed. You suck.
Now, instead of posting on a forum and adhering to the cliche that you are young, I would recommend you start looking up what is damaged, look underneath the car, and start researching more than anything else.
