yea the roads i drove to catch up to you guys were completely trash. too much dirt and rocks. next time some one set up a highway meet/drive, that would be much much better.

hope you get everything fixed soon.

funny to see the accident pic and your license plate.

sorry about the damage....new wheels too <sad banana>

the bumper's cheap. the painting and install is what get's you. its approximately 750 painted and installed.

i may have an AW rear bumper with scuffs on one side for sale that you can have a guy spray for cheap to keep some of that insurance money for other mods.

I'll install it myself... bumpers are easy to take on and off but I'll obviously pay to have it painted. I'm going to order it tomorrow and then check for a price quote on the painting once it gets here.

On a side note, my bumper tow-hook thing popped out today while I was backing out of my driveway and I noticed somehow it got damaged on the clip side, so I'll be getting a replacement one of those too. The reflectors are good to go though. I popped those out and checked em out. (And there are pedobear stickers covering up my poor dings now heh)

My two of my wheel edges look worse than that, but no hard impacts. I have 9.5 inch wide wheels with stock 245's not protecting them at all. Just touching the curb at 1 mph and wheel lip is not happy.

Good luck with the repairs.

Well, just figured I'd post something here since I haven't in a while. I've been pretty busy recently but I got my bumper in today, and tomorrow I'm going to the Wicked Big Meet in Massachusetts. 7hour+ ride and I'm setting my GPS to no highways or tolls

My bumper is still screwed up unfortunately. I wish I had the new one ready to put on but I do not have it painted yet So, I'm going up with the bears haha

I also rented a Canon EFS 50-250mm lens to take pics of the event and I'm really looking forward to snapping some shots with that.

If anyone else is going feel free to give me a call when you get there! My phone # will be on my car

Wicked Big Meet 09 was just that... wicked! I have around 200 pics to sort through but here's a sample. The nuclear power plant shot was on the way home :P

[evanescent03]
