I would notified my insurance co., take the car to a reputable shop and let them deal with the insurance company of the other driver.

The adjuster of the other driver ins. co. just saw the superficial damage, the Shop will need to take the rear bumper off and check for additional damages. This has been discussed here by other members that have been in the same situation.

The other insurance can come back and say that you accepted the settlement by taking the check. In cases like that I always have an apprasial done by the body shop of my choice and inform the other insurance that there can be additional damage.

Also you need to ask for Depreciation Value to the other insurance.

GL with the repairs!
