Hi, I wanted to know if it's possible to just replace the light cover on the rear lamps or would I need to replace the whole rear light assembly? It looks like the just the light cover is damaged. And for the bumper dent, would it be easier to replace the bumper cover or do the dent repair myself?

Bumper can be popped out the polished won't look new but probably 95%. Gaps may not be perfect. Can you go through insurance those tail light assemblies are quite expensive. I don't know of replacement lenses and even if they existed there is no way to replace them without cutting and gluing.

Troll Ebay should be able to find good used ones given the RX sells in large numbers.

If it can be popped back out, it may be worth it. I had the front bumper pop out (someone hit my wheel weld area). Went through insurance and the shop of course replaced the whole bumper. AND, it had to be painted. Total Bill to insurance was $2200.

Yes, I estimated that it would cost around $900 for the bumper cover and tailgate light assembly. I would go though insurance with $500 deductible but fear insurance rate will spike for the next few years. Do you know of any places I could purchase OEM parts?

I'm thinking buying the bumper cover already painted for around $600 and then installing the bumper myself if it's not too difficult. Would popping out the dent require a skilled professional as I can see the lines and angles are hard to get right?

Are your sensors & camera still working properly? Even though you might hear the beeps & see the camera but it may need calibrating.
