It's a great way to pick up a few extra bucks by fixing the car.

Whack job.

My red Yaris also got nailed in the left front fender. They body shops say that it is thin high strength steel and they just replace the fender with a used one. How do you get that worked out with the insurance company? My estimates are running $900 plus.
