So yoday I went to the car wash, hit a yellow concrete pole! It busted the bumper, bent all the supports, and bent the exhaust!! I will post pictures soon. Any one here know where to get the parts to fix it? Iff not it will be an insurance job.
 
I did some thing similar except I backed into a brand new BMW 750il my damage was around 15K.
 
Damn Sgt, at first I was wondering .....what ever happended to "dont ask, dont tell" ?? :dontknow: :D

Sorry to hear about the accident...Should be able to fix it witout too much pain.

May be able to have an exhaust shop heat and rebend the exhaust back to the proper alignment ;)
 
sorry for your "Bang" SGT... Had it last with my Toyo jeep , just a little oeps , but 4K costs... :mad:
Just wondering , can you not order the new parts factory ?
And now they stopped the production , how long will they provide spare parts ? Must they legaly do that for some years ? :dontknow:

I'm thinking it's 5 or 7 years that the manufacturer must keep parts available.

Kevan will be along shortly to correct me. ;) :p :D
 
SIR! Sorry to hear about the boo-boo SIR... There have been a few times I almost backed up into something (pole, car, people, etc.). That's why I am going to install a rear view camera. There are many on eBay that simply attach to your rear lic plate. It's under "rearview camera" or "backup camera." I could see out the back without it but it's those short obstacles that are easy to hit. I hope you win that bid for the bumper assembly on eBay for very little cash Sgt. Good luck.:D

Should have said light pole!

With the Army logo as your avatar I didn't think anything of it Sarge. But like Nowwhat said... Had you been a Navy Sgt. then some eyebrows would be raising.

I'm gonna go to the Insurance co. today to see ehat they say, then the dealership. I'm to deploy to Iraq on the 11th of may, I don't know if it can be fixed by then. I am planning on buying exhaust headers back so I'm not too worried about that. Well this is the time to ask I guess,,, does anyone make just a blank bumper cover without the exhaust notch? And also does anyone make side pieces so the pipes can come out the side like the cars???? :dontknow: I think that would look bad azz! :burnout:
