Default Backed into - damage done

I was hit today by a small pickup backing out of a parking space. Damage is primarily with the front bumper cover and light. Fender is also sitting above hood and will need a paint touch-up.

Need some recommendations on a body shop in the Bucks County (Philadelphia) area.

It just makes me sick that I have to deal with this. The car will be repaired, but I will probably have a permanent record on Carfax. Wish to avoid this but may not be possible.

Same thing happened to me in June. Only that the person who hit me was reversing at a red light and there was nothing I could do with another car behind me. I needed a new hood headlight bumper and crash bar. Parts and labor the grand total was $4600. Sucks to see someone esle go through the same frustration because of a careless driver. Just reading your post got me steaming. Good luck op
