    Sorry this happened to you. It looks like you may need a left quarter panel as well.

    Don't you have insurance? If you were hit, seems that the other guy's insurance would be paying.

    This early on, you are unlikely going to find other than OEM parts.

    Your best option, other than new parts through Toyota, is to go to salvage yards. Unfortunately for others, there have been a few of the new 2010s completely knocked out. If you can find one that had an intact rear-end, you'll do well.

    I simply don't understand why you wouldn't have insurance properly repair a brand new $25,000 vehicle...especially since a hit in the rear is not your fault?

    I'm guessing he's cashing the check from the insurance company, fixing it himself, and paying the difference to his car loan. If not then he shouldn't be driving a new car.
