Ouch. Door might be able to be saved, but the skirt looks like the paint has been knocked off on the raised corners.
That respray quote seems quite cheap. They will clear coat it? How much area are they respraying?
If they respray only the affected area, you will likely get noticeable halos in the clear afterwards where the old paint meets the new paint. This is the trouble with black paint. This is why I'm saying to do it properly they have to do entire panels, or find somewhere inconspicuous where they can 'lose' the join between the old and new paint.
Did Honda recommend the repairer? What paint system do they use? I would steer clear unless they used Glasurit or PPG paint and clearcoat to ensure a good paint match, the paint on Hondas is very high quality.
