Fender bender, mechanical issue suggestions for insurance replacement?
Just got hit this weekend...luckily the person stopped, and reported the accident (I was in a restaurant). They hit the wheel pretty good, and of course the fender.
My concern is what mechanical issues should I look for? I am going to push for the hub to be replaced being it could cause issues further down the line. I even hear screeching when coasting to a stop now...thinking about runout, and it may have messed up the assembly.
Any thoughts to what else should be considered?
Oh, and not to mention I had to pull over on the way home to literally pull my fender out to stop the tires from rubbing. OHHHHH, the low life days of mine....vivid memories.

dammmm lucky that's all that happened!! I'd be so tight!
Have insurance replace the bumper cover, head light, rim (if you see scratches), fender, fender support, fender liner, and that should be it.
