I just got a camry 2010 less than 2 weeks old and someone hit the rear bumper in the parking lot. It looks minor but I still want to get it fixed so its new again. The autobody said they can repair and repaint the bumper and I won't be able to see the difference whether it was replace or repaired. Its either $750 repaired or $950 replaced, I'd prefer to save the money if it'll last just as long. tia, Chris

I took my car to two different body shops, one my prefferred who I know to reputable, the other the insurance's preferred shop, I recieved two estimates both stated that PDR would not work well on this much damage. The claims person, was very irritated with the estimates (they were within sixy dollars of each other), sent an adjuster out who is claiming it can all be PDR. Offering 1200.00 for over 3000.00 damage. Had considered not getting fixed, is there something I can do to get them closer to the estimates?
