It's my turn! Any ideas how much this collision will cost?

Forgot to ask, what did your repair entail?

 

no collision here , was just a THOUGHT

 

Looks like 3500 in damage

 

Bumper, fender, flare, headlight, fog light/ bezel. Repair to door, small dent in rocker. They blended into rear door and hood. So replaced vinyl between windows on both doors also.

 

I'm hoping Lunar Rock isn't some weird paint to match. I also am not sure what I should be doing until I can get an appointment.....I'm able to luckily just leave it in the driveway until it can be fixed. Wonder if I should cover it up with plastic when it rains later this week

 

Did the replace the bumper and fender?

 

At least an arm and a leg or two....

 

If it were my truck, I would see if they can pull the fender out and only replace/paint the front bumper. I hate to say it, but they're never going to be able to match that color on the fender and bumper properly.

 

Yes

 

I don't think the fender is salvageable....it's pretty deranged....which is unfortunate because I have xpel on the whole front end so the paint isn't actually bad...

If they do have to repaint I'm going to try to see if they can avoid the hood...this place I have in mind does some pretty high end cara so I hope they can take their time.

 

They match/blended paint perfectly on mine. 5 weeks in shop. That was with all parts there first.

 

Looks to me the price of a new front winch bumper and $500 to pull the panel forward of it drives otherwise OK.

Other party can report their car as an accident. Yours will say nothing

 

Not to be nosey, but did you hit an animal? Just couldn’t help but notice the poo on your truck.

 

It hit me, I belong on the road. Dam deer doesn't... She was on a suicide mission, I'm guessing.

 

Well, at least we know ‘shit’ll buff out’ according to TW, but the rest of the damage is unfortunate.

 

depends on the change. most can take place effective immediately.

 

there’s no such thing as “full coverage” insurance. and the op may not have the appropriate coverage with a deductible to even pay.

this is the job for the claim adjuster.

 

Fortune/unfortunate (?) Ill have a $1k deductible, fat chance I'll ever see that money back from the other party either. By this point I just want to get it fixed well and before the snow starts

 

Duck it!!
