    I am sure your insurance company will cover the cost of a replacement head. 2nd picture is pretty nasty with some guts still on the car. Those scratches on the head look real deep and dont think anything will buff them out. Even if not scratched I would not trust the head to perform well after being hit and dragged on the ground.

    Before looking at an Escort Radar Detector you should really check out Uniden Detectors.. Uniden R1 & R3 are the best performing radar detectors for the money.

    Thanks for the input, honestly even hearing one person put doubt in the head makes me not trust it now. I will add it to the insurance claim, it is just a "parking aid for safety" after all.

    My adjuster has been somewhat difficult with properly appraising things (keeps picking aftermarket parts, not going to fly on my car) so fingers crossed.

    There is no ALP Sensor that is aftermarket and I doubt they will want to replace the whole system when they can replace just a sensor for much less. Not sure who you purchased it from but it should be easier enough to get a quote for a new sensor for the insurance company.
