Default 2014 IS350 front bumper repair options

What are my options here? It appears and from what I've looked up the front is mostly all one piece so I'm assuming a replacement will be needed. I know I didn't hit anything but it appears to me my car was backed into sometime between Saturday and Sunday this weekend. I was out and about this weekend and never even walked from the front of my car, every where I parked I approached from the rear of my car to get in so I didn't notice until today leaving work and walking towards the front of my car.

Anyone in the Jacksonville FL area (32224) recommend a spot for this type of work?


Thanks.

That is awful! My car is a very similar colour and I just cringe looking at the pics. This is probably not what you want to hear but i'd take it to the dealer to get it fixed though it'll be costly.

see if you can get dentless paint repair done, may still have that gouge still there...

go through insurance for hit and run and your comprenshive should cover...get a quote first from a shop take it from there...

sorry for your luck that sucks, i know the feeling been there....

I would just get a knock off F-sport bumper from Ebay, take it to a paint shop with your paint code. Then swap the bumper out at home. Takes all of about 30 minutes with very basic tools.
