[ Eli is prone to exaggerations, but when it comes to repair work he tries his best to be honest. There's no real reason for him to upsell here either, considering Rilan is having him do the repair work for free (Eli still refuses to accept reduced rent as proper payment, even if he'll take it). It's just a matter of covering the cost of materials, which there's gonna be a pretty big price jump between what he mentioned.

I'm doing the labor for free, but you still have to reimburse the price for the metal though. Maybe a little more than a hundred credits in total for the whole thing.
[ Another look at the ship, and a frown at a few spots. ]
But you're talking at least a thousand for the Hroginian route.
[ He squints at that crack he was touching. ]
You can probably get through a few solar systems with the panels just fine, but I'd recommend having your ship get a once over after a bit to make sure there's no interior damage to the hull.
