Dude, get quotes from all over! Local body shops.. everywhere. Send em all to ur insurance company. Have them include the front bumper in there. ;-)

You'll thank me.

Got a quote from the dealer.... the estimate is about 2500.
The entire exhaust system has to go..
both quarter panels
rear bumper
hitch seems intact

that seems like a very low estimate, I was hit in the bed behind the rear drivers side and it was over 10K, I would make sure to get more estimates and take pictures.
