However there are many ways to repair a vehicle, your plan of just buying a fender and putting it on would be the cheapest way to do. |
Yes, your estimate is a properly (close enough) written insurance estimate.
A good shop will get close on the color, especially if you remove the existing fender and let them use it as a guide when they match the color.
