So i was coming home from picking up my coilovers and BAM!!! out of nowhere i didn't even see anything the right front lifts up and i hear this horrible sound. i look in the rear view mirror to see sparks flying...so i pull over and find my bumper quite messed up. long story short i need a new one (if you have one pm me please.)-sorry mods.

is there anything else i should check?? its drivable, no sounds, nothings different so far, just my undercairrage is really scratched up (poor pretty x-brace). thanks for the help.
Currahee, where and when was this? I hit a roadsign with the concrete footing still attatched that was laying on the Santa Anita onramp for the west bound 210 a couple of weeks ago. My car is still in the bodyshop, $4700 worth of damage. Hope you didnt catch the same debris.

it was on the 605 about half a mile away from the 210 interchange...

LA needs to keep their streets/freeways nice....they are all crap now and i havent seen any improvements lately.

i would personally get the motorklasse one over the authentic one as well. the fit and quality is immaculate, not to mention almost half the price.

sorry to hear...i hit a 18 wheeler's blown tire on the freeway, crack, scrape etc. good thing the car was already going to the shop for paint.

good luck on your search for a replacement or cover up.

a lip is a good/inexpensive alternative if it'll cover all the damage

In the same week on my way to work I got a rock crack my windshield and a rock hit the side of my car denting and scratching it. Same time, same freeway, same spot right before the 241S on ramp on the 91W. 91 fwy is the worst.
