I Need Help Fender Bender
I live in Northern NJ near NYC today while backing out I hit my car on another car at 5 MILES PER HOUR WTF and i got a huge *** dent and a lotta scratches while the other car got like 3 scratches as far as i can tell i dont think it did any serious damage like the actual structure. posting some pics someone please tell me how much it would cost to undent and repaint this not by infiniti but some third party....
looks worse then it is no break in the bumper or crack just a huge *** dent .... and some heavy scratchin as well as the paint of the other car... and i looked underneath doesnt touch the metal frame part...
really pissed that i got soooo much of an impact at such a slow speed while the audi i backed into barely had a couple scratches thank god this not goin on my insurance or id die bein only 18 from feeling it i believe i coulda undented the bumper but didnt want to risk messin anythin up.
but can anyone tell me aproximately fixing this will cost me?
really appreciate any help i can get
thanks in advance

Yikes, grab the heat gun and go to work. Pop it out, wipe off scratches with gas, or something as a temp. fix until you get another bumper, or unless you choose to get this fixed. For all of you about to criticize about putting gas on it, keep quiet. I know it will not take out all the scratches, but it will make it alot less noticeable....

The damage depends on how the collision was. What angle you hit the other car. What part of the bumper you hit on the other car. G has a good rating front and rear collision. So there is nothing to worry about. The bumper supposed to absorb the hit. It did the job. With the other car maybe the bumper only melted a little but if you took a second look maybe it moved the bumper out position,etc. Just because it is not visuall for your eyes doesn't mean it is not there.
You should seek for a training how to back up. Feel your car how long it is and where the ends are. It might help you next time. Or back up camera if you not familiar with the back up process.

Does anyone know how much this would cost me to fix approximately? or where i could get a new rear bumper prepainted in this paint but not through dealer. Thanks in advance.

I would say you going to end up around 1k after painting and everything. You can pm to rick @riverside to give you a price estimate. They are selling it unfinished I think. So you have to find a bodyshop to paint it for you. If you want to save some money take the bumper off yourself and put it back. See if that gives you some $$ discount.
Good luck with it.
