Sorry this happened to you - but just to be safe, I recommend a few things:

1) Any eye witnesses? Get their contact info and statement. No witnesses? Check for any video recording equipment that businesses may have had. If they offer it up for free, great, if they charge for it, get a receipt so you can get reimbursed by insurance.

2) Go to the police and file a walk-in accident report. Even though the accident was on private property, it's best to have a report filed.

3) Contact your insurance company to let them know what happened. Even if you don't file a claim on your own policy, you want them to be on notice in case the other party decides to make a claim against your policy, even if its the same carrier.

What you do from here depends on if you want to make a claim against the other party's policy, your own, or just pay for it out of pocket. Either way you take, make sure you did the above suggestions. I understand you may want to avoid taking a claim against your own policy, but you have no guarantee that the other party won't.

I saw a post of $800 for a rear repair... I damaged my bumper cover and I have to replace it to fix the small dent I have (didn't even affect the paint). I was quoted just over $600 for my BRZ's replacement here in TN by one of the best repair shops in town. With that price difference be sure to do some research for your area!

I love the quad exhaust pipes. Who makes them?

Do they add any HP?

No eye witnesses. Cops will not do a formal police report cause it was on a private parking lot. Already called insurance.

Estimate was $791 for new bumper (including everything)

I still do not understand how this piece can be sold/installed like the one pictured if the bumper is one piece. How the hell does it get put on???

i hate dumb drivers

Came back as my fault... Figures. They didn't pull the cameras, they said because I was backing up, it was my fault. Bitches

If only this was in asphalt... Don't want have to deal with getting it painted!

sorry i didnt see this earlier, im an insurance adjuster, just feel free to PM me with what situation and ill let you know if your rates are going to go up

also the party backing up usually has a higher duty to maintain proper lookout
