Q: indent on rear bumper

asked by on September 07, 2017

I was involved in a slight accident when the car in front of me braked and I tapped the back of her bumper a little. The nuts on the front license plate on my car indented on her rear bumper and she has about 3 small dents from when it tapped. She took pictures of my information and they're asking for estimates from a place and I wanted to see if I could get a quote myself.
My car's transmission is unknown to me.
