Her incident was minor (rear bumper cover). We had an estimate done and they cut her a check for around $1,300. I found a bumper cover and painted it myself in my friends paint booth. Her car looked as good as it did before and she pocketed the $900 or so that was left over. I told her to look at it as compensation for her troubles!
Thanks - I've called her insurance earlier today and am going to a body shop (or three) to get quotes tomorrow/friday. The damage is a lot on mine, door, quarter panel and rear bumper, potentially a new tire as well after the plastic got jammed (it's still in there).
