Good Evening S2Ki,

I've been lurking the forums for some time now, finally got a S2K in Laguna Blue and actually bought it off a member of S2Ki. In the short time I've had it, it's been a joy driving. I've been taking the long way home after an hour long commute just so I can experience 5 minutes on a curvy, high speed road...it makes sitting through rush hour traffic worth while and a hell of a way to end the work day.

After a couple hours at the Galleria, I backed out of my parking spot and went on my way to the exit of the parking garage. And suddenly a screeching noise came from the rear passenger side. I pulled over immediately and discovered scratches and the rear bumper rubbing against the tire. A melting pot of emotions,anger,devastation, you name it; were brewing as I just starred at the damage. After what had happen processed, I just pulled the bumper out of the tire's way. As far as damage goes, the bumper bracket is a bit bent and the bumper is scratched pretty good (no dents, thankfully). Can anyone recommend a shop that can fix this at a reasonable price?

That sucks, but it doesn't look too bad. A shop might be able to touch it up without having to respray the entire bumper. I'm sure someone can chime in with more info.

Anyways, welcome to the site
