I bet if you gave him a (realistic) estimate and told him you needed the cash or you would take him to court he would fork over the $$$. If he knows he is illegally driving without insurance I am sure he will do everything he can to make it better without the cops involved.

Wait, scratch that. Have him give you the money AND call INS.
I agree. Get money from him for it and call immigration. Have his ass deported.

You're correct. For something small like that, don't bother. Insurance rates are based on NUMBER of claims, not price of claims (i.e. ten $1,000 claims is MUCH worse than one $10,000 claim, although you'd probably be dropped after five claims.)

Yep, you've got him over a barrel. Pay up bitch, or you're getting deported!!

whats realistic, to get a new tail section is 300ish to get a bottle of touch up paint >$5 so it needs to be somewhere in between, but got any ideas?

Maybe ask a local paint shop what they would charge to repaint the tail...
