I had to order another part. Upon closer examination something else is bent. Whoohoo.

It didn't involve taking everything apart to find this out luckily. It just means mo money...

Finding out before having parts scattered everywhere is a positive. Mo money still sucky though.

It is some trim piece that goes over the wheel well. It has a nice crease in it that shouldn't be there. I never really noticed that until Saturday. From behind it looks ok, but if you're walking towards it from the front it's pretty noticeable. No point in taking off the bumper etc just to have to do it all over again when this other piece shows up. Also my current bumper has 3m clear coat whatever the stuff is - so I also ordered a similar product for the pick-a-part replacement bumper I got off eBay.
