According to NADA, the high value is $7100. If you think about the cost of a new hood, new fender, new grill, maybe new radiator, fan clutch, condenser, those add up pretty fast, not even counting the labor to put them on and do the associated paint work. Is there damage to the suspension around that front wheel?
