Repair cost question.
From this description, anyone care to guess what the cost and difficulty to repair these issues might be?
The only notable faults we've found is that the driver's door mirror will not fold in, this is typical with C5 flag-style mirrors, it is fully functional and operational, however it just cannot be folded inward. The body and paint are exceptional, the only flaw being at the lower right hand corner of the hood near the headlight is a small area approximately 3 inches square. In this area are small, shallow indentations in the surface of the hood. It appears something came in contact with that area of the hood, it did not scrape or chip off the paint, and this is a small blemish that's only noticeable upon close-up inspection.
Also wouldn't mind a carfax on this vin if anyone is willing to do it.

Thanks all,

On the mirror folding issue I must confess I have no idea if mine folds in or not - I have seen a few posts where people have had trouble after folding the mirror, so I just don't do it.

If the mirror is broken, just the link in my last post in the C5 General Sticky (link in sig). Honestly I don't know if my mirror folds in either, but I do know it folds out.

my 01 mirrors fold in and I use it only in the garage so I can get around the car easier. If I did not have it I would not really care.
The small blemish might be able to be fixed with a good polishing or at least to the point that you will not notice it.
