Reversed into a BMW! insurance questions

The reason you need a new door (or more correctly a 'door shell') is that the side impact protection bars have probably been damaged and therefore just repairing the skin is hiding the real damage.
 
Well, on the bright side, at least now the hassle is Quinn's to deal with.

On the other hand, you may well pay more than 2k in the long run. I'd have gotten a couple of quotes under a false name before going down that route.

for online quotes i usually use false informations just to get an idea of what it looks like.I know for 123.ie if they gave you a quote the first time and you dont get it,the second time you go back,the quote is at a much higher price.
But after one claim I dont think I can get online quotes any more. So I need to phone them. Is it necessary to use false info when ringing insurance comapanies?

from looking at the link/photo the dent is quite high on the door - are the impact protection bars this high ?

Again I'm no mechanic...
