Seriously, a f-ing lawn chair?!

Happy friday!

I was driving to work today, on highway 84 East in CT, around exit 33, and moved over to the right lane, and yup there is the f-ing lawn chair smiling at me!

Any Ideas where I can get a new bumper and grill cheap?



UPDATE:

Got a new GM lower grill and the Stillen lip. Looks great! Glad I didnt go through insurance now!

Did it fall off of a truck or something? What's a lawn chair doing on the highway?

You got pics of the lawn chair?

www.car-part.com is where I would check for the bumper, or post here in the classified section. Maybe you'll find someone is doing a bumblebee fascia or something that has theres to sell.

I wanted to see how badly you killed that lawn chair for messing up your bumper.

ouch! Sorry for your damage.

I hit a 6ft aluminum ladder[in my Volvo S70] on the expressway a couple of years ago; I was going about 60-65MPH and couldn't change lanes. Definitely a sick in the gut feeling.

Good luck on your repairs.
