Glad to hear you're OK. Sorry about the front end of the car. Time for a new bumper. Remember all the fun we had getting this one fitted. Can't exactly tell, buy did the light or housing get damaged - Lens seems cracked. Looks like you'll be getting a new fender as well. Did the wheel scuff happen with this or was that there before?

Let us know what your insurance company says. Search our community for "Body Shop" you'll get some great threads back with recommendations

word to the wise, and i had no idea, but i would add aftermarket insurance if your car is modified at all. with the aftermarket lip and rims, my insurance will not cover the damage to those items. it took me 15 min to find the aftermarket insurance option on their web site. the shop owner knows the adjuster so they are going to try to work out something so everything will be covered.

everything will be covered. what they are going to do is adjust the labor time to cover the lip replacement and the rim repair. which actually works out in my favor b.c i brought it to this shop, and they are slow with business, the total labor cost to fix my car the shop is going to give me back 5%. will not until tomorrow what the total amount is, but everything will be covered.

Damn. That sucks. At least u didn't get hurt . I almost wrecked my supermoto yesterday. I was it a hurry to get home to beat the rain. Long story short I almost rear ended a car . The woman in front of me hit her brakes and i had to lock mine up and I stopped less than 3 inches from her back bumper. Scared the hell out of me.
