Need help on something

Today when i was washing my car i notice my headlights are not aligned and the left side of the front bumper is popping out while the right side in in.....the right side of my hood kinda goes up...so i am guessing some jackass backed into my car when i parked it or something. IF i report to insurance....would my rates go up? I have full coverage.....

It depends on the company. Some will and some wont. I guess it would depend on how bad the damage is and how much they are going to have to pay out.

you can get a few estimites from shops and submit them to the insurance company and ask if the rates would go up for this. if they say yes, just don't have them pay, save up. but if not, go ahead and get it fixed.

Depends on the company, and chances are it wont go up enough to break you.

first of all, do you have a deductible? if you have a $500 deductible and the estimate a shop gives you is less than that, they won't pay for it anyways. but if you don't have much of a deductible, it might be worth it. but get an estimate and talk to the insurance. mine told me it wouldn't go up that much, and it went up $100 bucks a month.
