What no ferrari scoop? lol
but anyway thats not good.

Silver is a bad colour to match aswell, make sure the panel beater is good or you'll see the differance in paint shades, i remember my mums laser had to go back after it got hit a couple months back because the front end was a different colour to the rest, finally after it was all sorted, my mum hit a towbar and the corners pushed in again...

Anyway i hope you get it sorted without any fuss
(thinks back to the ED days, when the ferrari scoop was made to my door without asking, ended up getting the guy to pay up after i already sold the car, which was about 2 years after the damage happened:P)

mate you said for people to not to say that will buff out. I was surprised I was the first one to say it. Good luck with the repairs, shame you didn't have any side moulds on at the time.

well i just went and got the first quote and it will be 1800 to 2000 to fix as they will need to paint the whole side of the car to blend the paint properly

Ouch, didnt realise your cat got hurt as well. Poor thing :P

If she is definately paying up is there any chance of getting a few quotes for 11ty billion dollars then just getting replacement doors from a wrecker?

Is she covered with insurance or is the repair coming out of her pocket?

I would be really ****ed if I had to pay 2K to fix 2 doors like that. The damage isnt exactly huge.
