Finally got her repaired. The body shop, Park Place Body Works Dallas did a good job (Certified Lexus)
The bill was $14,000. I got new front lights, trim, sensors, grill, subframe, Lexus emblem & car detailed for $750.
All original OEM parts

A 17 Lexus RX350 AWD with 62K miles costs around $35K. So the total cost was 40% of the cars value.

I had a GS350 that had what I would guess was 2-3,000 damage to the front bumper. I decided to trade the car for a new GX. I dealt (by phone) with a Lexus dealer with a Lexus certified body shop. They told me not to get it fixed. They gave me a great trade and fixed it themselves. Obviously they had a an adjustment for the damage, but it was still a better deal than me having it fixed and paying a deductible, and it was a better deal by far than my local Lexus dealer offered me.

The point of my post is that they felt comfortable that fixing it at their certified shop would not effect its resale.

I'm seeing maintenance required soon warnings. It appears all maintenance information has been cleared. I'm assuming battery was dead with work going on. I got a maintenance warning sign, but I don't know what needs to be replaced.
Going into settings -> vehicle -> maintenance didn't help. Everything is cleared.

Its at 64K. I did change my oil and filters at 58K. Do you need to replace the oil again after a wreck?
Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thats something that the “certified” shop needs to fix.
