Default Got side swiped..

Got side swiped.. Well a bit more than that (while parked), by a f250 dually.. An appraisers going to look at the car Tuesday, in the mean time I'm wondering how serious is this damage?

around $2200 worth (speaking from experience with that same side, and damage). However my wheel wasn't fu*ked up like yours is, so probably around $3k-$4k...

Someone mentioned the frame could be bent, causing it to be totaled.. I'm indifferent about it, as long as it's repaired 100%, I don't mind it getting fixed.

that sucks bro.
I backed into the pole and my rear quarter panel was f***d and was appraised around $2,350- that was for both quarter panel and rear bumper. So yours might be $+ or $- depending on how bad the damage is. I heard there is inside liner and that's a pain in the *** to work on

your rear wheel looks off a little, might be a serious suspension issue....

A little? I think that's a slight understatement

Looks like a a fair amount of suspension damage. Subframe may have shifted. I doubt there's any unibody (aka "frame") damage. If any of your suspension is damaged, you may be able to replace it with aftermarket parts which offer more adjustability.

Good luck. If there's anything I can do to help get your car back on the road, let me know.
