My stolen civic SI was just recovered and I want to get an idea of the
cost to repair it (I have insurance, but I am hoping that it is
declared a total loss).

How much do people estimate the repair will cost?

Attached are pictures of the car.

Well- google will not let me posts picts: so here is a description:
Front: hood, front spoiler, grill, front quarter panels, hood molding,
lights completely removed.

Inside: everything in the console removed: gauges, CD player, climate
control. glove compartment, and some vents. Damage to cigarett
lighter. Shift knob, floor mats removed. Plastic around steering
column destroyed, as well as ignition. ?passenger's side airbag?

Trunk/rear: trunk lining removed, lights removed.

Wheels are still on car (!). It appears drivable, except for no
instrument panel inside vehicle.

I know this is quick, but if anyone has any ideas of repair cost, that
would be very much appreciated. I priced out the parts (OEM) to be
around $5,700.

Also- if anyone wants too see the pictures or knows of a free
newserver service that allows pictures to be posted, I would be happy
to post/send them.

thank you.

for the body work alone you are probably lookin at atleast 2500 in parts and
labor and paint other than that there isnt much more i can telllu and try
looking at aftermarket parts forthe car sometimes they are cheaper
