Rob,

BTDT. You're going to need a rear bumper and brackets. The brackets will definitely have deformed with that impact. I'm not a body man at all, but I think you're going to be able to get away with the front end being pulled out without much disassembly, since it looks like things are pretty straight from the grill south. See if you can't get the body shop to fix that rust spot by the window molding while they're working on it.

Karl

Here are some pics of the damage to go with previous post:

Its not horrible, but it is, as I hope you can see, certainly bad enough that I want to repair it.

Someone already replied that I wasn't clear about the nature of the wreck:

I was sitting in a long line of traffic, and a vehicle 6 cars back was rear-ended very hard. I was the 2nd to last vehicle in the chain reaction. The SUV in front of me was what gave my front that wrinkle, but the car in front of her got away painlessly.

Thanks-
