Going to be without the Monte for a while

Hey everyone. I got in an accident today on my way to school. I'm ok, everyone is ok. No injury. I was rear-ended while stopped at a stop sign. Damage to the Monte was quoted at least $2500. I'll get pictures up later probably.
Now I get to drive a 2011 Corolla until my baby is fixed lol.

It's there, just doesn't look too bad from the outside. Trunk wouldn't pop open, who knows what's underneath the bumper cover.

Glad everyone is OK.
Looking at the pics, the trunk lid is raised. So you need a rear bumper cover, possibly some sheet metal repair and paint.

Plus side, you shouldn't be paying a dime for it. Hope it gets finished fast and back to you ASAP!
Glad no one was hurt
