yes it sux...

good body shops can work wonders ... the pain will be gone very soon.

could've been much worse...wheel, bumper look unscathed.

$300-500 ; 2 maybe three days in the shop and it's gone.

looks deep enough where the inner panel may have been damaged too. New fender and liner are in order.

For comparison, my fender and door were hit and the estimate put it at around $2400. But that was a full fender replacement, door panel replacement and paint for both, paint repair to where it scuffed the hood, plus blend across the side of the car.

Well look on the bright side at least you saw it happen so hopefully you got the guys insurance, so its not coming out of your pocket.
