A suv backed into the middle of my car. The dent is on the second door on the passanger side. His tail light/ bumper hit me. The dent is about as big as the length of a grown mans wrist to the elbow. There is some paint missing. How much would it be to repair something like that?

You know you can't believe that. I have no way of seeing the damage or analyzing what is needed to repair it. We also do not get involved with costs here because there's way too many variables. Do you want the highest-quality paints, primers, and sealers, or will you be happy with original equipment quality? What's the hourly labor rate in your area? Can any dents be repaired or will panels have to be replaced? Will you accept used parts or insist on new ones?

You need to visit any body shop. Part of their job is in estimating damage and providing written estimates.
