How much to replace a 2018 Honda Civic Type R rear bumper?

I came out of the grocery store a few minutes ago to find someone had smashed up my 2018 Honda Civic Type R’s rear bumper. Is this going to be expensive to fix?

Ouch, we’re sorry to hear this happened to you. If the person who did it gave you their
car insurance
information, their insurance should cover the damage. Otherwise, report the incident to the police. Worst-case scenario, your
collision insurance
should pay for the damages.
As for the repairs, costs will vary from one body repair shop to the next. It’s also going to largely depend on how much damage was done and which components need repairs or replacements.
Replacing the bumper itself will usually cost anywhere from $1,000 to $2,000 when you include parts and labor. But if the damage just consists of dents, holes, or cracks, you might be able to get cheaper repairs, in the $500 to $600 range or possibly less.
Many 2018 Honda Civic Type R owners are DIY repair hobbyists and could possibly replace their own bumpers. If that describes you, expect to spend anywhere from $300 to $1,500 on parts, not counting getting the bumper painted if that’s needed.
This is one of those moments where having
comprehensive coverage
can be a real financial lifesaver. Comprehensive insurance covers damages to your 2018 Honda Civic Type R whether you’re driving or parked, and covers not just collision damage, but damages from storms, fires, vandalism, theft, and more.
And while we’re on the subject of these types of incidents, it might be a good time to consider investing in roadside assistance, if you don’t have it already. It can cover things like towing or winching, but it also saves the day if you have a flat tire, if you run out of gas, if you lock your keys in the car, etc.
