Random guess 3k fitted and painted.

PS all suspension will need replaced, you can't just replace one side.

3,000 Im hoping ur joking right.. its only the front man ouchh this could have to be an insurance jobby

It'll be a write off if you put it through the insurance. A Mk2 Ph1 Si isn't worth £3k to repair. Depends whats bent, you got any pics?

no phone went dead basically tire blow out on corner lost control and endup up the curve and the suspenion on the fton left is gone ( aka it moves forwards and backwards) then the ball joint went while it was on the tow truck.

phone went dead?

Shouldn't have been on the phone then!

Sounds like a write off to me on that car, might get lucky.

If you don't bother with the bumper etc, you might get away with it say 1k.
