It will not cost you your deductible to have the cover replaced and painted. I would make sure there is no hidden damage before your decide not to file claim though.

Go to a body shop and get an estimate. They are free!!

If there is a possibility of hidden damage the shop will tell you.

The bumper cost around 800 to replace and repaint depending on where you g. I had the same problem, but i just got mine fixed for 500. I got the other persons license and their insurance paid, though.

Bumper repaint at the shop I work for is about $300. I'm sure you could get it a little cheaper somewhere else. We charge more then most shops.
