You're looking more than $3K for sure. New tailgate, bumper cover, whatever is under the bumper, possible exhaust work, painting, etc. etc.

this aukey dash cam uses capacitors and not batteries so they can be left in a hot car in the summertime. you'll need a high endurance micro sd also.

No idea, but I wasn't going to stick around since I was heading into work. Happened 630am (forgot to change the clock lol) so kind of early, but you never know.

The Best Dash Cam https://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-dash-cam/

"Wham! A car crash can happen in an instant. And as frightening as that may be, it can be just as distressing to be blamed for a crash that’s not your fault. That’s why a dash cam can be a critical aid if the unexpected happens. After researching more than 250 models and testing about 40, we’ve found that the best overall dash cam is the Nextbase 522GW. It delivers the sharpest video we’ve seen, is the easiest to use, and has handy features that you don’t get with most other dash cams."
