Unhappy My broken fit

I've been a constant lurker on the forums and never posted much. Just had the car for 7 months exactly. Took my girl out because she said she was feeling sick, got rear ended then sandwiched. Happened around 3:40pm this afternoon. For those of you in the SF, it was a bit after the 280 to 101 merger exiting towards Cesar Chavez.

Images below, removed plates numbers.

Hopefully there isn't. Left out a few details. Trunk latch will not close properly, the trunk lights stays on. The plastic piece right behind the latch is disfigured. When CHP told us to move our vehicles off the highway and i drove it off, I head the bumper rubbing and the exhaust making really weird sounds. Hopefully there's no engine work.

I bet it's a crack in the piping, it happens when it's crushed in, doubt there is engine work. but the plastic may have crumpled into the latch area, I remember therubber getting in the way when I sound proofed the car.

The bottom part of the front latch areas a bit caved in.

Insurance is gonna go take a look at the car today. I'm still hoping its not totaled. Most likely I'm going to bring it to the deal to get repaired.

I feel your pain, dude. I went to get in my Fit one Sunday afternoon, and there is this dent, right at the body crease in the middle of the left rear door!!! I have no garage so I have to park on the street, and the people around here walk down the street, instead of on the sidewalk. I imagine they were just screwing around and somebody got pushed into it and made the dent. Got her on Wednesday and dented by Sunday!!!
