Damaged case

[seansss]

So my fairly new macbook pro was recently in an accident. It was dropped by a family member and is now in need of repairs. the housing around the monitor is damaged pretty well. Everything is still functional camera monitor everything it just looks like crap. I took it to the apple store and they said it would be around 500-600bux to fix. does any1 know of a place where they can just get the 2 new housing plated and seal her back up?Any help appreciated thanks guys!

how high of a drop was it? i thought those aluminum cases were supposed to be pretty sturdy. although, i have heard that the plastic cases of the mb are sturdier because of the thickness. is this true?
