Here's another angle on the damage, after I moved my vehicle.

Let me guess. She got out and immediately blamed you.

Just the fender?

tough to tell if the bumper and the hood took damage

Surprisingly, no. She got out and immediately started gushing about how sorry she was, and how it was her fault. Music to my ears.

Looks like you might be able to get away with just a new fender. You mentioned the paint is only 6 months old so you can probably just have it sprayed in the same colour you did back then. They shouldn't even need to do much to match; I doubt the paint will have faded noticeably at all.

At least that's what it looks like from this angle. Any damage to the bumper/side marker?

Bumper looks fine to me, might need paint. Hood is iffy, it'll need hinges at least.

My headlight was spared, thankfully.

I baby that paint, so it shouldn't need anything but a coat of Toyota Super Red to match. The bumper might be scratched, but I don't think it'll need to be replaced. I'm going to argue for a new side marker, since they're only a few months old and I want it pristine. The gap on my fender/door worries me.

The gap might have just gone a little wonky from the fender being deformed. You won't really know until you get a replacement on there. As long as the mounting points for that fender and the structure behind it are fine, which it looks like they should be, I think the door gap will work out fine with the new piece.

Thanks for the reassuring words. I'll let you know how it goes after I get an estimate.
