My Mini Accident. How bad did I get it? 56ks dont

[519]

So my bro was driving about 2 weeks ago and it was snowing outside. He lost control of the corolla and slammed into a curb pretty hard. A week later, he was driving and again lost control of the corolla yah he's noob. This time he hit a snowbank and broke the lower part of the bumper. Here's the Result

After hitting the curb, the rim got owned. I personally claim the small bump. The big one's his



A week later, after he hit the snow bank, it doesnt look as bad as it really is. The thing was hanging by a small piece.



Anyways, friday I took the car to a little shop and got a brand new bumper installed in and got a new OEM steelie from canadian tire.

Heres the new bumper after it was painted and installed.



Heres the new rim installed and all. how about that rust spot in the topleft. can i stop that somehow?

I know its so shiny. I could eat off it.

Anyways back to my question. I was wondering if I got ripped off or not. I'm asking this because I'm noob with the shops around here and wondering if the guy is good priced. oh yes I also got a new signal switch installed plus a new headlight bulb in.
Heres the breakdown of the costs:

Parts store
-Turn Signal switch + new primed bumper: $264.00CAD

Canadian Tire
-Shiny Steel Rim: $57.00CAD
-Headlight bulb: $8.00CAD

Auto Shop Place
-Install Headlight bulb
-Install rim with transfer of tire
-Paint and Install Bumper
Total: $280.00CAD

Grand Total: $609.00CAD

All I wanna know is, did I get a good deal on the parts and labour? I'm asking for future reference and where to go if I need any more work. Thanks

it's really easy to do that even if your good at driving, I've had it happen twice

True freakin...But to some here its our "bad driving" that causes accidents like that(most of them probably drive with 1 inch studs on their cars ...I hit a patch of black ice on a back road last year and in less then 3 seconds I flew off the road like a hockey puck wound up in a ditch and up against a telephone pole...cost just for repairs-- $7,200USD

New driver door---
Below door new S model trim
New front bumper & sub bumper
One new headlight & fog light
one drivers side wheel surround
crimp in front fender repaired
Miscellaneous shit...?
Tow-----$200--insurance paid
Failure to control ticket----200---me paid
Car rental 15 days---$500---insurance paid
Deductible $250...me paid

I was 1 month away from accident forgiveness(8 year accident free driving)

Rates went up $300 a year, but thank god no one was walking or driving on that side of the road because they would have been history and me in jail for involuntary vehicle manslaughter, Just for that fuckin piece of "black Ice" ...

Radd Guy... Oh, 519...I think that was fair on that repair price ....

Motomaster SE's that explains it all.. those aren't the greatest tires in the snow.

BTW if you bought the rim from Canadian Tire, its an aftermarket rim.. OEM rim would be the one you buy direct from Toyota.

Don't let your bro touch that car anymore.

I would think you could do the others yourself save for installing the tire on the rim and maybe balancing of the tire.

on black ice even michellin x-ice tires don't help.
