Just bought an 09 S and a tree branch fell on car while at a friends house, I did not have it registered and insured at the time. Body shop whats 2~2.5 k to fix it. :( ...Went to my PDR guy today and he said about $250...Will post before and after pics next week. He fixed my Speed3 and no one can tell. He owned a Mini and said the metal was a little heavier than the Mazda...We will see.....Hate to have the car repainted the chili red has held up well over the years. It may be not as fast as my 350hp Speed but this thing is a blast to drive

My local PDR guy said MINI metal was very workable and he proved it while I waited. I couldn't find the dents unless I knew where to look.

Some of those dent guys can work them back if they are not that bad and not too close to the seams. Goodluck.

Not a big fan of cats, but I always liked Bill and Opus.
