For anyone who wants to know the company screwing me was Johnny Walker RV.

That's the problem. The letters RV at the end of the name Johnny Walker. Never get work done at an RV shop that can get done at a regular shop!
Like "Marine". That's why they spell boatt with two t's now. It means "Bring on another ten thousand"

I called my RV insurance co. to let them know there was a ding but that I had not yet decided about filing a claim. That was OK. Some of the quote differences were due to the hourly labor. Some wanted $80/hr....some wanted $60....and some $45/hr.

Got a verbal "Ballpark" from "Pro Collision" in Las Vegas. He said around 1000.00. Already I'm feeling better!
Thank VegasDan for your guy! I will see if I get a hold of him.
I did call a fiberglass fabrication shop. They told me they do boats, RVs, and autos too. I sent them photos still waiting for feedback.
Thanks everyone. I like this site a lot you all were very helpful.

FYI:
Now that you've reported the incident, you might just as well file a claim. The incident itself will go into your insurance record whether you make the claim or not.

Well, to be precise, I called the broker/agent who wrote the policy and told them. When I finally called the insurance company about two weeks later, after the estimates....they had no record of the incident.

I used a mobile repair service called Top Gun. It is the type of place that does repairs on cars coming off lease. Call a local car dealer and ask them for a reference. There was some body work and mostly rubbing out. They did a nice job for $300.
