Welcome Sorry to see the damage. Go to a paintless repair shop and see what they can do

Yeah I tore the nose off my S550 on a curb stop. Body shop charged me $180 to put it back. It's not a PDR repair. Might need to pay for a bracket or two. Get it to a shop.

Cuz they'll drop you or put you in a division where rates are so high you'll leave on your own.
Underwriting decisions (and rate increases) used to be based on chargeable (at fault) losses incurred during the policy period. Now it's based on "incidence".
Here are the incidents that caused Geico to recently drop us from their preferred company to a basic indemnity company and double the premiums after ten years.
-Son's car backed into in a parking lot
-My car rear ended at a light
-Wife's car hit by a hit and run driver
Plus, all carriers now share info, so shopping for new coverage meant all of the baggage came with it. So generally when small stuff happens I just take care of it out of pocket. Cheaper in the long run.

Make sure the damage didn't affect the aim of your headlights (and your ability to adjust the aim).
