Default Help! I was stupid....

Does anyone know how hard it is to replace the rear bumper panel or the driver's side rear panel? I hit someone in my blindspot and it either needs fiberglass work or a new panels and I was thinking about doing them myself. Any help?.......(crying for my poor car) Thanks...

Not sure of the repair process but the q panel can be had for about $300 then paint, not sure what the bumper costs, unless you know how to paint and blend you may want to let a shop do it.

Everything is just bolted together.

Most expensive part will be painting and blending area.
