Default 2005 Honda Civic- has damage need advice

I want to buy this 2005 Honda Civic EX Special Edition Automatic 89K miles $5500. It has some damage tho. Of course I'm still going to get the car checked out but do you think it will be fine despite the damage. The seller said it might cost $1400 to get it looking brand new again, do you think this is true? You can clearly see the little bit of damage on the right side. You can't really see this but apparently both bumpers have some damage. Also do you think it will be fine of i don't get it fixed and if its worth $5500 in its current condition?


The seller aid this about it:

Automatic, Coupe, Power windows, power mirrors, power sunroof, 6 disc CD changer, Premium Sound System, Side impact air bags, rubber floor mats, cruise control, alloy wheels, spoiler, AC, Anti lock Breaks, Two keyless entry key chains, Two Keys. Pretty much every single option available on this car for this year.

could be anywhere between $1,500-$3,000 to have that fixed depending on the shop and if the front and rear bumpers need to be completely replaced most shops charge $70-$80 dollars an hour. not getting the side fixed will lead to rust which will get worse over time. also the car is due for a new timing belt and water pump at 90,000 miles that's a big job and could cost another $800-1,000 dollars. therr also seems to be damage to the tail light thats another $150.
