i am terribly sorry to hear of your loss. back in august i did the same thing (slid off the road at a high rate of speed) but instead of hitting bushes i hit a parked car sideways. i replaced the rear quarter- $600 for a used quarter(that was cut a bit short, my body man wanted to kill me) and $600 to put it on. $200 for a front fender. the rear quarter still had half the wheelwell so i got lucky with that. also i trashed the subframe, demolished my cv joint, bent my front tierod, cracked my exhaust, bent the trailing arm etc. etc. i'm up over $2500 easiliy in repairs but im replacing everything. no paint yet. all i can say is if you know someone in a body shop talk to them to try to work a deal. my body work was done in a weekend and 17+ hours is correct as thomas stated. good luck and take your time and get it all done right. also if you report it to the insurance company they might issue a salvage tittle if the damage is that bad.
keep us updated
