Comprehensive should cover it, minus your deductible. Some use the money from the insurance company toward the purchase of a bumper other than standard (e.g., M-tech).

Every situation is different. Call you agent. I have developed a very nice relationship with my Allstate agent. His insights and advice have been invaluable.
He has kept my premiums at the lowest they can be and still provide me withe coverage I require AND keep my out of pocket expenses low as well.

Close ! Actually this type of physical damage is covered by Collision Coverage - minus your deductable.

Better listen to me, I'm pre-med.....or is it pre-law

With full coverage, would you have to pay a deductible? Would it raise any premiums?
And if the damage wouldn't cost as much to fix as your deductible what happens?

Did you file a police report? Many jurisdictions will let you file one over the phone and many insurance companies require a police report or case number if you're going to claim the damage was the result of a 'hit and run'. Otherwise, they'll still fix it, but will consider you to be at fault and that could definitely affect your future insurance rates.
