Depends on the damage.
Only a body shop can assess that cost.
My car was hit from behind and initially looked cosmetic - $924 according the insurance adjustor.
Found out after the body shop tore down the car, damage went into the unibody rear panel, front turbo & exhaust mounting damage, and complete underlining (heat shield) was crumpled. Now the estimate is at $10,700.
So don't go by outside cosmetic looks - get it to a body shop - remember the car bumper was designed to take the impact and then spring back- you have no idea what is underneath or behind...

Depends
If it is dented then it will cost a good amount of money. If not it can easily be touched up.
Dented= 200$-400$
Not Dented= 80$-150$
This all depends on were you go to get it fixed. If you go to audi of course it will be more expensive but it will be done perfectly.
