Car was hit this morning.......................Need some advice....
It was backed into by a CRV. It missed the headlight and got the bumper and upper fender.
The bumper now tapers up toward the fender as it gets closer to the tire and seems to be pushed in towards the engine because i see more tire when looking at it straight on.
Obviously the fender itself has some damage to it but my biggest concern is anything behind the bumper it moved like the ic's.
Any advise on what to look for would be greatly appreciated. I can take some more pictures also if that would help.

Also noticed this.... Is there any way to stop it from spreading up onto the fender?

To add insult to injury, this was for the car this weekend.

Come on 260 views and 2 responses....Well i took the PC to it and tried to work it out.
I got a quote to pull, smooth and paint the fender for about $260 at a good shop. They suggested i spray the bumper too but i think i got most of it out. I might have them roll my fenders while they're at it.
Here are some of the after shots.
