Recently I scratched and dented the body of the car that is next to the left wheel, under the back seat left hand side door. It seems like it is a border to the bottom of the car and it goes up and around.

It's two panels? It looks like it's only the bottom one. How much does a repair like that typically cost? Also, if I wanted to get the whole thing replaced how much would that be?
