Sorry to hear that too. Get a few estimates and if the price is pretty high get your insurance to pay for it.

Good luck,
Craig.

Make sure if it did damage it enough that when it gets repaired they look at the filler neck of the gas tank because when my 94 Z28 got backed into in that same spot after it was fixed I could smell gasoline all the time and I later found out the filler neck on the tank had been cracked or something..
