    I don't trust mechanics, they always try to make money from you. Same for computer repair guys, they put cheap part in my computer and it lasted 30 days.
    I fixed my car 3 months ago, and it cost 1k, but the guy that caused that damage to my car paid the cost.

    paid $34000 for the car like almost 2 months ago.

    and yeah... snow + curb + expensive rims + easy break safety features... gets expensive.

    I don't have a car unfortunately, so I don't have repair costs.

    the most is about 1600. Its a 2005 Nissan Altima. I got into a small crash. I ruined my hood, front bumper, lights, grill.

    I sent my car to Nissan, so all parts are original. Thats why its expensive.

    The max. cost that I have had to shell out on my car for repairs was roughly Rs.75,000/-.
