How can I prove that my vehicle’s damage was the result of my accident to insurance?
I was in an auto accident and my car’s front bumper and passenger side door were
damaged. The driver of the other vehicle was 100 responsible for the accident
and his insurance co. state farm is paying the repair bill, however they don’t
believe the damage on the door was a result of the accident. How can I go about
proving to them that it was?

If you can find witnesses in addition to your brother, who can all sign declarations under penalty of perjury that the damage to your car door was not there prior to the accident, that will help you prove to the other party's insurance that the damage was solely from the accident.
