    Looks like I'm in need of a new rear bumper cover for a '98 Civic:

    Damage is to the right rear side. I forgot to use the parking brakes
    and the car rolled backwards and scraped an old vehicle that is no
    longer in service -- no harm to other vehicle. The car rolled back
    about 30 feet @ ~ 3 mph on a 2-5 deg. decline (guesses).

    I'm waiting to hear back online for estimates to replace the rear
    bumper cover.

    Are you kidding? That's repairable. No need to replace.

    I don't see any dents, just some scratches and paint from the other
    vehicle. You can polish that off and apply some touchup paint. Don't
    spend $1000 replacing that bumper cover.
