stupid dumb **** faded in an suv
Some dude just hit my truck last week, I went to get an estimate for a price outside of the insurance company and I got anywhere from $250-450 prices for a full rebuild of the bumper and a small part of the frame that got bent. With insurance I was told the quote would be well over $1000.
I ended up asking for just the cost of a new bumper through the JCWhitney catalog for $150 and got that much in a money order and signed a waiver saying everything was taken care of. I banged the bumper into place myself, tightened one of the two bolts hodling it to the car, and pocketed the money. It turned out fine all things considered but my bumper is still crooked

Some **** in a LandRover merged into me this morning 101S Brisbane - missed me by a few inches. I was in my bright yellow and very loud old Celica coupe... I leaned on the horn for a while and swerved to miss him, and he waved at me like "thanks" or something. Focker. Damn idiots. My buddy got rear ended in a similar thing as yours last week as well and the guy got out and yelled at him. WTF is going on??
BTW - there's no point to my post either, I just like the way my keyboard sounds.
