First of that sucks and I'm sorry.
Second, I may be mistaken here, but it looks like it's all on one part of the car. If that is the case, then only one part of your car will need the repainting, which will certainly make it cheaper than if the damage was spread across the rear and the side rear fender. If I had to guess I would say between 250-450 to get it fixed. Sorry bro |

Seems like a daily occurence around here.
I'm not body shop estimator and your pics are low quality. If all that's damaged is the corner of that rear plastic bumper, I'd say 4-800 |

Go to some reputable body shops for estimates then consider the cost versus your insurance deductible.

Also, most Camaro owners try to park way far away from where normal people park to avoid this kind of stuff. Good luck man, sorry to see that happen to you

Might be able to claim it under comprehensive, which may be a lower deductible. Looks like shopping cart damage.

Too bad for your car. I would suggest to repaint it.

Do not- I repeat... DO NOT park your Camaro and leave it in front of a Wal-Mart. Ever!
It's our fault man, this really ought to be a sticky... Really sorry to see it, that's a tough one to swallow :(

You're definitely looking at new paint, so at least 400... They may suggest replacing the bumper, depending on how much plastic was taken off. Could go as high as maybe 1200 honestly.
Sorry again man, I do feel your pain. 10 into ownership of mine I rolled it gently into small steel pole.......... 2500 in damage, just like that. I was NOT happy :/ Get a quote, you may be best off filing a claim on this. Maybe call it a hit & run?

Next time park away from everyone else. Do not park next to any of the areas that stores the carts in the parking lot.

This. And try to park on an uphill slope (most parking lots have peaks and valleys to help with drainage.)
