Last night driving on the local highway a car in front of me blew a front right tire and his wheel/hub cover came off and got jammed in my bumper. I ended up pushing it until I came to a stop. It did some minor damage but it still bothers me because I just had the whole car repainted a few months ago and it was in perfect condition.
Police came out and said there is no point of filling out a police report since it is minor and told me just get his information and left. I know if i go to a body shop it will be at least $500-$1000 it get this repaired.
My question - should I just contact his insurance direct? I don't think my insurance should be covering this since it was totally not my fault and I have a $500 deductible.
