It's not that bad. It just looks bad. They just have to pop out the dents and repaint the fender. There is no internal damage.

From where? I am scared of the color not matching up because of aging and all that.

u should be fine with color matching... my car was 5 years old and my ebay lip looks just like oem, and my oem front lip also looks oem... if anything the fender may need a polish.

OP, $400 sounds like a good deal, just double check with them when the weather is good, and ask them if they work with insurance company (just for your reference). Another way to get a more accurate quote is to let your insurance company estimate it. They are experienced in car damages and can give you a better idea. Just my .02.

If you are worried about matching, have it color blended, they partially pain surrounding panels so the repair is not as obvious.

Color matching will depend upon how well you take care of your paint. If you can undo a few bolts this is definitely the cheapest option.
