Default Crap, highway debris was flung up on my hood!

Ughhhhh....I was on the highway today and was directly diagonal about to pass a pickup truck when out of nowhere something hit the front of my car and flung off. At first, I thought that it might be hardened mud and gravel from the underside of the truck that I was within 5 feet off as I passed him (I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time), but upon closer inspection, it looks like it might have been some rubber with metal in it. My front grill is scratched and warped about 2 inches from the top side, and the adjacent hood area is dented and creased approximately half an inch. The clear bra is also damaged as well. So my question, would this type of repair fall under my insurance after I pay the deductible or will it cause my insurance to go up? Will the insurance typically also pay to replace the clear bra as well?

clear bra should have it's own warranty against things like this (maybe) as far as the damage to the car ---

I believe comprehensive insurance will kick in to fix your car - - - the cost for you may go up depending on your policy.
