I had a similar incident with my old Civic this year. Some jerk parallel parked into a tight spot behind me. The damage looked identical to OPs. I was able to ID the car bc there was paint powder that attached to my bumper from the other car. I checked the other car's front bumper and it had my silver paint on it. That's when rage overcame me and I dished it out to the offending car.
I'm going to put a clearbra on my rear bumper (as a DIY). The pictures you posted gives me a good idea on how much coverage to put & where. So feel better knowing that this incident will help out at least one fellow Fit owner.

Just be careful....you usually get what you pay for. Check the shop out with the BBB at the least.

What's there to be careful about? That sounds about right but he can probably get it cheaper if he takes the bumper off himself and take it to the body shop just for the paint n stuff but I wouldn't pay any higher than that price,!

they been there for 10 years, no complaints or law suits.
It's a small shop and the dude knew what he was talking about so i think i'm cool (knock on wood)
also i seen one of the cars they just painted and it look good... but then again it was a 300Z with a new body kit lol....
your car is new and it's your bumper so paint match should be fairly easy.

I have to recommend as well that you take the bumper off yourself and walk it in. It's really easy to do.
