Default Fender damage :(
Here some pics of the damage from a wooden post. You cant really tell, but the bumber is scrached to the plastic underneth. Got a two different estimates. One said $450 the other said $1380...huge range? And both were just reshaping and not replacing fender. How much should this be roughly. Should I use insurance (even though my fault to a stationary object)? Deductable is $500. Will my insurance go up if I do?

Saturday rain
