Am I going to get screwed?

[Sid23]

So my lease on my 2006 Saab is up on 3/31/09. I was in an accident a couple of months ago and I have some damage to my front bumper. :smx4: I've been given 2 quotes for fixing the bumper, both around $1,500 with parts and labor.

My boss told me just to return the car "as-is" and have Saab fix it themselves. Obviously, they wil charge me for this. My boss says they will just sub out the work to a local auto body and charge me probably the same amount as the quotes I've been given.

My concern is that I turn in the car and they say, "This will cost $4,000 to fix and we need a check from you." Once I turn the car in, I kind of lose any rights I had, no?

Does anyone here have any experience with this type of situation - turning in a leased-car with some damage to it?

Thanks,
Sid23
