If he hit a pole, wouldn't it be a vertical line of damage? ...I guess the pole could have been angled. So what's the verdict? Did you catch the guy? Did you fix the pole? What happened....?

Anybody have any ideas what the options are to getting it fixed?? Like should I go to a shop and get an estimate and then either go through the insurance or try to buy a whole new trunk and bumper and get it done outta my own pocket?? I'm so piss but sad.
How old are you? You sound kind of young. It's just a car man, go through insurance. It won't cost you anything but your deductable and they can't make your rates go up since it will be through comprehensive. Relax.

Dude....you have got to be kidding right? Another accident? You either haven't figured out how to drive or just have the worst luck.

Hmmm. Could have fooled me. I guess that "pole" he took it from at first made me think otherwise.

But really, I hope things work out for you. Sounds like some bad luck!

You'll have to get it all painted, anyways - just have the bodyshop switch the fender out.

dont only think about the outside. theres stuff under the bumper that may be damaged. headlight bracket, bumper support maybe, etc, you never know until you remove the bumper and headlight. parts will be close to $1000, but labor will be around that also. when it comes to car repair, labor is usually just as much as the part cost

Maybe you should get rid of the TL and get something with less power...and very cheap to repair.......or stop driving. I'm assuming it was your fault. Dude, don't killl anubody
