Got hit on the driver's side by another car while parked. Didn't want to use insurance but got a quote for $4000

It doubled recently

Tbf it needed to, regardless of inflation. A good mechanic takes longer to develop than a competent physician, even at the same IQ level.

doesn't this seem like way beyond normal repair work? struts and control arms aren't typically replaced until 200k+, i know this guy got in an accident but these are not really usual repairs imo
