    It'll be like any other single vehicle accident. Just be honest with your insurance and they'll take care of it, assuming you have full coverage.

    Sorry about your truck.

    Collision deductible. It'll be listed as a claim.

    Yeah pretty simple. Make the call, they'll send a adjuster, cut you a check for the repair. Should be pretty quick.

    Yes. Use the highest three with your insurance and ask if they'll give you a check to repair on your own. This is your chance to buy a real bumper for cheap if you want one.

    All body shops are willing to give you a written estimate and it only takes 15 mins tops.
