You do not have to accept anything other than OEM and yes you can go after diminished value, but it takes some work. You will have to get offers from a few different Lexus dealerships that they will print out for you. It sucks but just paying the deductible for your insurance will expedite the process and you have another party involved that will assist in dealing with their insurance company. You will for sure get the deductible back and again only have your car repaired by Lexus and use OEM parts.
That is why some insurance companies want the other parties insurance to cover the costs first and then reimburse the bill so it will limit costs by forcing the insured person to have 'limits' applied to them.

When my Acura MDX got involved in a fender bender, our insurance car rental policy stated we had to get an "equivalent" vehicle. So, I got a nice black Cadillac Escalade for the week for my trouble. If it's covered, it's covered.

At that time, it was Auto Club of SoCal. They're not cheap but their service is top notch. No hassles with these guys.
I have Farmers Insurance now. I live in a high risk fire zone in San Diego, nobody but Farmers would insure my house, went with the House/Car combo coverage.

Is the rate on your homeowners high or reasonable?

2-3k is a very low estimate for that damage. It'll be full F Sport bumper cover replacement, maybe a new hood since it's bent, and the front quarter isn't looking too good either. It's gonna need paint if not a replacement then paint. Not sure about that front wheel either. I'd guess 5-6k for starters.
