Any Idea On How Much To Fix/replace Tub In Ute?

[Coley]

A truck drove into me yesterday as I was merging into traffic and scrapped the side of my car. He said he didn't see me but I dont think he was even watching the road as I was already half in the lane and it was in heavy traffic so we would have been doing under 20kmph. Unfortunetly because there was dashed lines in the merging lane I am at fault because I should have given way to him even though I was already halfway into the lane and he drove forward into me. Hopefully my insurance will cover my car but I just want to know if anyone has had to replace the rear tub in there ute before? And how much it cost them? I dont think you would be able to hit out the dint. Here are some pics:

Have seen tubs around the $1500 mark, factor in paint and your looking at over the $2000 mark. Maybe try companies that fit trade canopies there more than likely to have a fleet tub or two stashed out the back.
