"I hit a pole last night in my 97 850 T5 Wagon. It caused a lot of damage to the fender and the mirror on the driver's side"

Pot hole? Sounds more like a crater left by a meteor to damage the drivers side mirror! How can a pot hole cause so much damage?

I'd pay someone else to repair any major bodywork damage unless it is simple bolt on parts. If it's just a case of replacing the mirror then this is quite easy and is described in the haynes manual. The fender may be a different story as it is made up of three or four layers so it may be better to seek professional assistance.

Good luck

Andy
