My first bruise was an anonymous parking lot hit very similar to yours. I blame myself because I was Xmas shopping on Xmas eve.

So sorry that you had to go through this awful mess.

I'm glad at the least you will have something positive come out of it with the new bumper however.

This is how real drivers handle that kind of mess, they turn a crash into modification and their car comes through cooler than before.

I hate seeing my favorite green on the forum take a hit austin but you took care of it the right way. Looking forward to some new pics dude! Please keep us posted.

To each his own, it's your car. Just my opinion, I'm sure your ride looks nice though. Appreciate you not taking my response negatively.

Yup very bad luck with the car. But, at least no one got hurt, and I get a free mod out of it....cant complain about that.

Sorry to hear about the damages, but glad that an honest citizen helped you out and reported the morons that hit your car. Can't wait to see the new ZL1 bumper.

Best wishes for a pain-free claims process and bumper install!
