Minor accident ! how much will it cost to fix this dent ? should I claim insurance ?

It was caused in a minor accident , and the other care has some scratches in the rear right wheel. What should I do ? We just exchanged information and haven't called the cops.

You can get a easy estimate at websites they always give you competing prices.

The front bumper cover will have to be replaced and the passenger side front fender must be repaired. It is possible that the headlamp will have to be replaced along with the front bumper reinforcement beam. Depending on the damages...anywhere from $900-$1500.



****EDIT****

Most shops will not allow you to bring in your own parts. You would not go to a restaurant with your own steak and ask them to cook it for you. Same principle.
