Well it depends.Unless its beyond repair I would fix it not replace it.A body shop would charge around 400 bucks because its pretty complicated to change one.Could fix it for about 50 bucks.IMO But check around i could be wrong.

To replace the complete cowl panel is a serious PITA.

If it isnt too bad just do the best to repair it.

most shops labor to change the cowl would be over 500
