I am not going to sugar coat my opinion, but those are pretty good size gouges on your bumper!
Just make sure that the body shop is going to sand all the paint off in those areas to make it flush, then repaint. All I can say is to make sure that they do not use "Bondo" to get around in sanding the area.

LOL..the damage wasn't too bad so i didn't want to make her feel bad about it...but man did it hurt to look at it...

Just don't let the shop do a bad job, if it looks dirty or scratches are evident then make them redo it.
Don't sign the paperwork at the shop till its done properly. The insurance is paying for it not you. Even if you really just want your car back.

actually, I would make them buy you a new bumper cover. That is within your rights as well. Especially since your mom has pull in the insurance company. Bondo is the cheap fix. I will never have bondo on any of my cars. I will replace the body skin first.
