    Since you have the picture, you can send it to a local repair shop near your place for an estimate.

    14.5K miles only and selling at $3500. possible it is not worth taking a chance but i will ask repair place. if anyone can guess repair cost let me know.

    Put some filler in that pillar, all good.

    I had a previous car with pillars like that and deemed totaled.

    I think it is gonna cost a bit to get it perfect since you are dealing with a windshield sitting in it.

    edit: that is one heck of a biz name they got there!
