Broken Tail light

Just had a women back into my yaris


not sure what I should do


I asked for $50 cash

and got all her information and let her know if its more I'll contact her.


Now, her car seemed like it was pushed in a decent amount in the bumper for an SUV. It appears it was only my tail light I don't think it pushed my back in at all.




So what should I do?

I would get her insurance info and take it to a body shop for estimate and then I would offer her to pay the bill or file a claim. Tail lights can be very expensive. I would never ask for cash upfront.

You can visit ebays auto parts section and type in "Yaris tail light". I've seen new and used ones very reasonably priced there.
