Someone hit my car

Yeah when I went out to look at the car I turned on the headlights, driving lights, and blinkers and everything worked fine. I'm going to get an estimate tomorrow

The pic doesn't do it justice on the fender however. It looks like only the paint had been chipped but the a majority of it is dented and misshaped now which is why I was thinking of just getting after market fenders. Is that too must of a stretch?

Well you need A fender for sure, not even worth the time to repair it.
Go aftermarket, why not? And I'd ask the guy if he wants to go out of pocket or through his insurance before you call and file.

Btw, I'm not saying the light won't work, I'm saying that it'll let water in.

^^ Agreed on the new fender. The less filler on your car, the better.

yeah I told him that we could go around insurance if he wanted to but he said for a car like mine he'd rather go through the insurance? Not exactly sure why but either way it will be fixed
