TinCup Well-known member Mar 3, 2011 #3 2 dollars for a fender, outrageous! My how times have changed.
newshirt Well-known member Mar 3, 2011 #4 Based on this mailer, it's not hard to imagine a $50 repair bill. Assuming the engine is shot and you blow $25 - $30 on it alone. $50 is one tenth of the value of the car. One tenth of today's car is $2K - $3K. That's a big bill.
