Dude file against her insurance, demand a rent car from them and send yours to the repair shop. The dealer is going to say it's from the damage to the rear end. Even if she was going slow it could have caused some serious damage. Don't try and hide the damage from the dealer, they're gonna know it will be obvious to any tech. Don't insult their intelligence.

Definitely get it looked at and make sure that she pays for the work... you don't have to be nice... regardless how fast she hit you... there could be damage and you need to make sure that it gets fixed properly. if you don't then you are completely giving her a free pass for hitting you and for failing to be in control of her car

Plus what about the cosmetic damage? I for sure would want that fixed (and did when mine was rear ended). They hit you, they pay for everything don't settle for less.

i was rear ended, 1 month from my G's purchased. Claimed it against her insurance. Had i ck'd out. Repainted. Good as new.
Rather be safe than sorry. Get it ck'd and get the comsetic fixes on her insurance!!!
