I have had my share of things happening to my cars. Everytime something created a hurt on the car, I took it as an opportunity to make some mods. Surprisingly enough, my dealerships' body shops have also assisted me. Not that I was doing anything illegal.

that really sucks. and yeah, pretty much the same law here in florida. you rear end someone, nomatter what the cause, its automatically your fault. even if someone raced around you and stood on there brakes it would still be your fault. its not fair. sucks but it is what it is

That's an easy repair.
Has the car been wrecked before? The reason I ask is that the delamination of the paint on the fender sure seems to indicate prior paint work. I've never seen OEM paint lift off like that.

Sorry to hear that! That really sucks. Unfortunately with my is350 I had an accident with almost identical damage. I took it to Lexus and even though it didn't look horrible, there was frame damage. Hopefully yours didn't shift like mine and hopefully the hood is ok. Even though you can't see anything, sometimes it shifts. Good luck buddy!!

Yeah that's what I'm trying to do, I'm taking this as an opportunity to get all the rock chips on the hood painted and get a fresh bumper with no license plate holes

No it's never been in a wreck the previous owner tapped somebody's bumper with his license plate in a parking lot but the plate saved the bumper but that's it haha I was wondering if that was normal for the paint to do that but the fender is so smashed idk what it should look like
