I went through this twice recently, rearended an SUV at low speed and had someone back into me. Car came out great each time and I had over $7k worth of damage from each collision.

it will get fixed, but your rates will go up
also, that guy has time to report any injury or something along those lines...i know when i hit someone in the back(a long time ago) they have 3 years to report any injury to the insurance company. just something to think about. i know you werent going fast, but insurance his insurance wont care because it will just get them more money

yeah... I had that happen to my rear bumper and it ended up costing the other person's insurance about 6k. The body shop guy told me the reason was that our car ports are expensive. The bumber alone was like over 1g and then all the little things. Either way it didnt cost me so all good.. best of luck with yours.

yeah thanks guys ,you made me feel little bit better.but there is no problem with the insurance,im paying for 2 years the same money ,and no matter what happens.here in europe there are maybe some other rules.and the car what i hit had nothing and he was ok,just litte bit rude,but i was so in shock that i didnt give a f..k what was he talking about,i was just watching the bumper.

Some of those bodyshops can work wonders. Just look into them before you decide on one.
