Default Wrecked 350Z

So I got into a fender bender in the parking lot of the Walgreens and I don't have full coverage insurance to pay for the repair.
Can anyone recommend a shop in the Columbia, SC area? The driver's side fender and front bumper need repair,
the driver's side door binds when opening, the drivers side front tire rubs on the rear of the fender well, control arm or something maybe
bend backward. The car can't be driven that is why I am asking for recommendations, and I can't tow it all over town for
estimates. At this point, I'd be happy just to get it back on the road even if I could just get it roadworthy and not worry about the cosmetics for now.
THANK YOU!

You are going to spend more than it's worth.

yeah, that's what I figured. But I need to do something with it and I don't know what.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say there's information missing. If it's not driveable how is it the bumper cover
is already hacked off while it sits in a parking lot???

Yeah, if you can't afford insurance or a tow truck, you certainly won't be able to afford paying someone else to fix this. Parts car for sale $1000 obo.
I'd guess all suspension parts in that corner, fender, frame pull/repair (suspect since trouble opening door), front fascia, hood?, misc parts, clips.. 3k-4k+? Drop any fluids or bust the a/c compressor? add more.

I just pulled off all the stuff that was hanging down. As far as a saws-all I have not touched the car.
Before I bought it, it had bodywork done on it. I can't drive it because the front driver's side tire is bent backward and rubbing on the rear of the fender well. And I don't appreciate being called a liar,
I posted this because I need help not because I am in need of a troll with nothing better else to do in life but to put others down because they need to make themselves appear superior to others.

You need to put it on stands and look under it before we can give you guess on anything. I'm afraid your steering rack might be f*cked being bent. You're probably gonna have to replace that along with damn near all suspension components under there. The radiator core support is plastic so it's busted for sure. Ac lines probably damaged, fender, bash bar, condenser, radiator, etc.
what all fluids leaked out?
