Front bumper damage cost?

Hello, I have an 08 tsx. While out of town someone hit my parked vehicle. I was wondering how much someone like this would cost roughly.

Thanks

Offender did not leave a note I presume -lowlife. Looks like you will need a new headlamp assembly. The front quarter panel and bumper *might* be repairable, but probably cheaper to just source undamaged used ones and paint them rather than the labor with repair. Your wheel rim looks like it also sustained some rash but that is likely just cosmetic. The wild card is unseen damage behind the headlight as there are some hard lines for the AC system back there and the way your turn signal is pushed in, some close inspection will be needed. For just the cosmetic items, I'd say you're looking at $1500-2000. Good luck. any chance some security cameras might have caught the event?

Thanks so much for responding!

Lowlife is right they definitely didn't leave a note. That's the amt I was thinking, I do think there is some other damage because when I drive over any bump or uneven pavement I hear a scraping noise it definitely wasn't like that before my baby was damaged. Unfortunately no camera round at that time. Hopefully my ins will take care of it. Thanks again!!

Comprehensive insurance should cover this. You'll just be out your deductible.
