Nah that'll be fine to fix, doesn't even need new doors, they will just reskin n repaint. The rear quarter might be an issue though. Dunno if a shop might consider replacing the rear quarter or jus panel beat it out.

no it's the same black subaru impreza that keeps getting photos published at every opportunity by it's rather sad driver who seems proud of his knackered car.

sick of seeing it, seems to pop up on most threads where someone has had a bump, pretty sad really when ya think about it.
