well its just the bumper hopefully : (
I got rear ended by some guy not paying attention.... like you can't see a
37 year old Beetle with antique plates on it in front of you...sheesh. Its not that bad , but boy was I pissed... Lots of bad words... cant open the deck lid.... gotta wait till the insurance guy looks at it i suppose. im not going to settle for a cheap bumper either... thats an original german bumper that was not rusted... and in good shape. But the blade is toast.But closer inspection reveals that new bumper brackets and a new blade are needed ( bumper has a split in it now) ... i think one towel rack is bent, both towel rack upper supports are bent. surprisingly enough since it was a german bumper... it with stood the inpact pretty good. the only place the paint is cracked is on the bumper bracket holes, i dont think there is any noticeable body damage, but then again i cant open the deck lid.
I'm pissed.
