I spent years in body shops. You are in a tough place. That is a hard panel to replace. They will need to cut and weld a new piece in place. My guess is because of the age of the car, they will want to total it out. ( depending on the book value/damage ) Our shop would have quoted several thousand dollars if it was just the panel. A cheap shop can do it for a couple thousand. A good shop would charge you about $6000 or so, But it will look like it did in 1985 when they are done.

Best of luck to you. I hope it comes out okay, cuz if it is a true gsl-se . . . I would trade my car for it.
