Hi,
Got rear-ended while sitting at a traffic light yesterday. We were both stopped at the light, and when the left turn lane went, so did the guy behind me.

No major damage as he was probably only going 2-3MPH when he hit me. The rear bumper cover has some scratches and is a bit miss-shaped, the aero kit upper center section is cracked and the trailer hitch cover is pretty beat up too. I snapped it back into place after taking the photos. One of the PDC sensors trim ring is a flattened a bit on the bottom edge.

Any advise on filing a claim, I have a $500 deductible, or just pay for the myself?
Also, should I have a shop do the work, or just do it myself?

Thanks for any insight...
