What a bummer... Sorry to see something like that happen.

It looks like it broke away cleanly from the front fender. Good thing that you don't have a Coupe. The two screws that hold the bumper on would have probably made a real mess.

its probably that just for the bumper and from the looks of it you drive a DG or BS . If you get a new bumper and paint its not going to match unless you blend. I know the rear bumper was 450 plus another 250 just to paint the bumper without blending and i think it was another 600 to blend. So if you want it to be perfect then i would claim it and let insurance pay for it all. Otherwise just get a new bumper and paint it and be done with it. Im pretty sure the font bumper is more expensive then the rear. But not sure how prices compair to the coupe.


sorr to see that man.
