$4000 does sound very cheap; I went to several panelbeaters to get a quote to repair my rear-ended ST215 Caldina. New tailgate and the sheetmetal just behind the spare wheel well, and a new bumper, I couldn't find any quotes below $3500 to do it. Really surprised me, so I would doubt this GTR is $4000 to fix!

I'd budget $20,000 - $25,000 from start to finish.
If it came to less then YAY . But being a GTR there may be all sorts of different components required.

Something odd there alright, would you put up with all those questions if it was as advertised and you were selling it!

What he said, there's an awful lot of stuff mounted around that damaged area and it's all broken.

OP here: Great to hear comments from all the guys in the 'know'. Will be interesting to see who "wins" this auction.
