Nothing personal, but you need to fire your customizer.

I stopped at the red light on a busy street. I was going to get some parts to fix my 89 year old mothers light. When the light turned green I barely started moving when I saw a lady enter the crosswalk. I stopped and the person in a big Nissan pickup did not. I think his passenger front tire was what hit my car as his steering was messed up and his truck was not driveable.
He has State Farm insurance so everything should work out. I am having it fixed at Corvettes of Auburn as they have a good reputation and I have seen some of their paint work. It will go there Monday. A new bumper, rear fender, trunk lid and a few other bits and it should be OK. And some money for diminished value. My car is a 32000 mile never hit before virgin.
