Sorry to hear about the damage, but it honestly doesn't look all that bad. Hate to be a "glass half full" kind of guy, but it could have been a lot worse, right?

It just gets worse State Farm says no matter how I say it happened the fault is mine and that I should have been more carefull on backing out so I will have to pay my deductable before state farm pays a penny. The quote I got was 1300+ to fix which is alot higher than I thought it would be he said I would need a new rear bumper and a new tail light as it has a scratch in it.

Yeah it's convenient for the ins company to say it's your fault. My daughter got broadsided in a parking lot by someone that ran a stop sign and it was my daughter's fault according to my insurance company. It was totally the other driver's fault. What are you going to do though. At least my deductable is only 200 smackers.
