Glad you got your estimate. 3-4 weeks seems like a long time considering there is no body work, just sheet metal replacements unless parts are hard to come by.

After my accident I needed a new rear bumper, new front rubber wheel well, new drivers door(metal only) and extensive rear suspension replacement and one new rear rim. Body work included drivers-side rear door repair, rear wheel well repair and front bumper repair. And that only took two weeks including three business days before the adjuster saw the car and gave the go-ahead.

I hope everything turns out OK for you.

^^^they are replacing aprons or sidemembers, or both in that car. definitely a far cry from 'just sheet metal replacements' . 3 to 4 weeks sounds about right.

Disassembly and inspection is complete and side aprons are not damaged.
