I just got an estimate today of $400. ??? Does that seem low to anyone else. Now I'm not just worried about the damage but the work thats gonna be done. The guy is my dads friend so I don't think he'd try to srew me. But maybe just taking the easey way out.

my paint flaked like that...400 is a good price (not too low)
only concern you should have is the paint match...its not as easy as usinng the paint code WV2....just make sure he takes his time matching the paint...otherwise the body work is simple...it doesnt look like u need to replace the fender or bumper

That is probably a fair price, if they are fixing, rather than replacing the parts.
My Roadster was backed into at 4 weeks old. The price was $1383.58 to repair. My rear bumper was replaced and the rear fender fixed. The rear fenders are welded on, so it's less complicated to fix rather than replace. SB color, came out good.
Good luck...I feel your pain.
PS...I was told by a friend, who is an Insurance Adjuster, that the collision center that I took my car to was on the high side, but they did excellent work.

My concern is how that paint flakes off the metal. I got into a fender bender with my BMW and do not remember the paint flaking like that.
