Just because they send you a bill does not mean that you owe them anything. Since I would consider a 1000 bill for a ding an attempt to rape me, I would fight fire with fire: (1) Deny that you caused the damage and make them prove it and (2) Find out THEIR cost to actually repair the ding. Assuming they can PROVE you were responsible, make them also prove the extent of the damages. Now given that nobody checked the car when you returned it, in your presence, how do they prove YOU caused the damage unless you admit the same? $1000 bill for a ding? Screw um.

And yes, you can be sure they have insurance for this. If they turn it in to their insurance AND charge you, they recover twice.
