Didnt you call the car insurance company and have the damage appraised? Usually they sent a rep to the car's location and assess the damage. Then you would have to go through the insurance company (As I did in my first accident). And I just had to pay the deductable (whatever it is). Then you need to find a place to do the body work that's Lexus Certified. I had $8,000 worth of damage on my car and I only Paid $500 deductable through my insurance and the car got restored. Im not sure in your case otherwise how you would go about fixing it. Good luck!!! Hope everything works out.

Not referring to this guy specifically, but does anybody here ever recall an accident being posted here where they were actually at fault? Cuz I'm thinking we might have both the best skilled yet unluckiest drivers in the world... (sarcasm)

even if you report to your insurance company n only pay deductible, you are still getting record that your car has been involved in an accident right?
from what I know, this may cause some difficulties in selling your car, esp when u r trading in, coz some dealers won't accept cars that have been involved in an accident

Yes your car will be valued less at a dealer because they know what to look for. I would recommend selling it to a "private party" and pray that person doesn't know what to look for.
Good luck.

She said all accidents where the police are involved will show on your record. Now if there was a statement by the officer that shows that you were not at fault, then it won't count against your insurance premiums.
To OP, I was rear ended and the bumper was dented slightly. The dealership quoted me $1200 for all repairs...Hope things go well with the insurance company.
