Thumbs up How much would this cost to fix?

I found this blue s2000 that is in good condition except for this dent thing....does anyone have a clue how much it would cost to fix? I'm going to look at it but I just wanted to see if anyone ever had anything like this happen before.

if you wanna go ghetto style, it'll actually be pretty cheap and virtually unnoticeable. Just take off the tape, bondo the thing up, then retape it.
