Came in contact with the back end of a 2000s VW Jetta today at 5-10mph. The contact wasn't at an angle so everything pushed straight back.
I haven't had the conversation with the insurance company yet. I am wondering what folks think of the severity and how bad to fix if they total it.
I know I need a hood and front bumper cover. The right headlight was a small crack. I am assuming the impact support beam behind the cover is shot. I'll need the other plastic bit in the front end.
My biggest concern is the frunk tub. It looks like it has been pushed backwards. If you look at the weather seal for the hood it has curves. Other examples on the internet look straight. Can the tub formed back? Does the impact support beam and the rest of the front end locate off this? Right now you can tell everything is moved aft and hasn't sprung back.
No air bags went off. The door to panel gaps looks good.
