How easy and expensive is it to repair a Ford Mondeo ST220 fender and rear door?

I live in Sweden. At the moment I am in the process of looking to purchase a left-hand drive Ford Mondeo ST220. One recently came up for sale, but has a few problems with its bodywork. The front fender is cracked around the fog lamp and the rear door has three indents about 30cm long in the rear door. It has the usual small stone chips etc, but otherwise it's in good condition with a good service record. The car is the six-speed 2004 model. Would you know approximately what it would cost for a new front end fender and a new rear door? Can the parts come in pre-painted to the blue colour of the car?

The front and rear fender/valences are a problem on this model and are always getting damaged or falling off. There may even be a non-availability of the part. It might be worth considering replacing with a standard Mondeo V6 bumper/valence. I can't give you the costs, which would be different from the UK anyway.
