Unhappy I couldnt be any sadder..my baby got hurt by my own mistake (Help!)

I couldnt have had a worse day, actually the worst was when some punk kid, who didnt know how to drive, slammed into my baby from the side damaging the rear quater panel, but now on my own while parking i put the front bumper on the curb and while reversing trying to free it, it sort off broke from the driver's side...i dont know what to do? I dont know if it is repareable?? what sort of stuff can I get repared??..its only the front bumper..it has come out a little from the driver's side and also the link to where it sort off hooks up to the hood it has broken at the joint..

i will try and post some pictures when i get home..but I need to get some help..any one knows where i can get factory sedan front bumper from, may be a little used or if i can get my bumper fixed?

really need help..

the bumper is not expensive to replace, the paint and labour is the expensive part...just get it replaced if you have a good body shop hook up for the paint

should not cost more than 700.00

crap if it was not for my second car that I am getting in another 1 month I would have easily spent the extra 700, any easier way?

how much would be paint and labour you think..i dont have a hook up as such but can try and find out..

thanks for the input..it would actually be best if I can find a ivory one for sale..i am going through the parts section and found a silver one for sale, but too bad, i want an ivory..aahh..i hate when all sorts of expenses start to show up..i need new tires..my new car is ariving for which i have already paid for new tires and wheels..so this extra 700..would hurt..crap crap..just for a stupid little mistake..

Maybe you can tell the insurance that after the kid hits your car, your car then hits the curb!!!!
I see you have IP, too bad cuz I have a twilight blue bumper in my garage.

Check the screws that hold the bumper on where it pulled back. You may be able to loosen the screws and push the bumper back on (through the tear if the bumper tore off). Then tighten them back down to hold it in place. I had a similar mishap and it's a relatively simple fix, if only temporary.
