be sure to check the lower control arm for damage ,as well as the ball joint(bent stud). check for paint flaking or peeling,replace any with signs of damage.
No paint flex or chipping anywhere, if it ends up being alot more meh, insurance will pay for it so keeping fingers crossed it's only what they said above, Control arm,spindle and possibly hub she didn't hit the curb hard more like she slide into it with the tire turned to the left so curb hit buttom of tire and just tucked it in abit...

We didn't have to but, I mean it's insurance anyway... soo it would have been over 500$ regardless plus we needed a rental which our insurance pays for, if we didn't get rental it would have been going to a small garage to get fixed...
