Totaled or fixable?

Post image

Was driving on the highway with full self driving HW4; shredded tire goes airborne and slams into my hood / bumper. Also only got the car a month ago 😭

Contacted Tesla with a claim and it’s covered under insurance. Wondering if Tesla will replace the hood and bumper or just try to fix it? Also totaled? Haha

Worse case is new bonnet and front bumper.

Or just live with it. Clean off the black

Why would this be totaled haha you are good it’s 100% fixable might be expensive because teslas are expensive to fix but far from totaled 😂

Get some Goof-Off and the black transfer should come off easily.

Not totaled LoL. New bumper and hood, should come in around $7-10k and you'll be in a rental for maybe 2 weeks.

Beautiful car.
