I have ordered the replacement parts of the arm and the subframe assembly ... does anybody know how much work this is to get replaced and what type of charges I'm looking at. I just don't want to get screwed out of too much money when I take it in to get fixed. THanks in advance.

I was only traveling at around 25 mph when I pulled the e-brake, but I hit a patch of rocks and continued to slide n slide until my car was facing the opposite direction and banged up against the curb with my passengers side wheel. So it bent my arm, frame, and strut. The wheel is currently pointing about an inch inwards with no noticable bends anywhere. My estimate just came back at $1000. Great ... there goes the trip to Hawaii.
