I did not want to waste a whole thread on this but.... Well, after all that work and my car being perfect look what happened! I was at a complete stand still and a Jeep plowed into me at least 30mph. The trunk is actually closed in the pics. I did not get a picture of it but the left tail light is partially cracked outward on the left side and the trunk is slightly buckled. I was hit straight but more to the left and that is why the tail light is bent out. I have to apply slight force bend the lens in but it pops right back to the side. I have not taken it in to the body shop yet but how can I tell if the frame is bent?

Ahh, you don't have luck with this car. Need to go to church or something like that...

Actually you are lucky being hit by a jeep! It is tall and the impact is high.
Not any damage underneath. Do't worry about the frame! Need to only repair the bumper (if in USA is a practic to repare plastic bumpers)
Just to be safe, chek the spare tire wheel well

We will see what the body shop says. She had insurance so thank goodness I don't have to touch it. The car will need a new bumper, new trunk (it is slightly buckled/bent), new tail light and any other minor trimmings. It was hit harder then it looks in the pictures and there is a lot more damage to the left side. I was hit hard enough that my hat and sunglasses ended up in the back seat. I want my car to be perfect like it was. Also in California we have something called a Carfax and once it gets fixed it will be reported which will ruin the value of the car because it will go on record as having an accident.

This is what I am concerned about. You really have to zoom into the second one to see the damage.
