Hi,
This is my first time posting, so I hope this is the right section.

I got in my first rearender yesterday and damaged the bumper/grill area

.

Can I repair this myself? Any idea of how much it'll cost to repair(me+repair shop)? All help and suggestions are appreciated.

Thank you~~

Looks like the only real damage is the grill, you can easily replace that with an original that i'm sure some people here on yarisworld have or you can buy a sportier one like the one Garm sells.

Looking at the picture alone, the hood doesn't line up with the bumper, the head light, or right fender.

Obvious:
R&I/Repair/Paint - Front Bumper
Replace - Grill

Hidden Damage:
Hood to Bumper - Could be a simple few clips, bracket or a bent rad support
Headlight - Mounting tabs break easily, May need to replace the headlight
Right Fender - Needs allignment
Bumper Absorber - Could be cracked
AC/Radiator - Should be checked

I recommend you just take it to a bodyshop, pay your deductible and get it all fixed.

If your paying out of your pocket, just fix whatever you want. Just make a important note to check the AC/Rad.
