Smashed Front Quarter Panel

[MSOEMiller]

I hit a piece of flying plywood on the 10 FWY tonight.

Does anyone have a front driver's side quarter panel in the 2008 Red color that they would like to sell?

Does anyone know what the cost SHOULD be from the dealer?

I live in Pasadena and can pickup within a reasonable distance.

Thanks,

...I know how you feel...don't panic...it will be OK and when done it will look as good as new...check with your dealer...you'll be surprised as how cheap a single panel can be...

I may or may not have rammed someone one day.

I had to replace the front driver's side panel, grill and license plate holder. The lower panel bellow the grill and light were spared. All the parts and labor to have the smart/Benz dealer install everything was a little over $400. Most of that cost was the parts, about $250. It took them about an hour to fix my smart.

I have the answer to my question. Ordered from the dealer today.

$209 and I learned they call it the fender, not a quarter panel. I also wanted them to triple check that they are ordering the 2008 red, because the color changed in 2009. The dealer didn't know anything about a color change

We hit a deer last night. We will need a new right front fender. I did not think about it the change in color of the red. We will have to make sure they order the 2008 color as well. I am not sure of the rest of the damage yet.
