I was coming back from a JCO meet in London Ontario last night, going up the highway at maybe 130, then BAAAAMMMMMMM a chunk of ice came off a tractor trailer and went KABOOM into my front... i think i @!#$ myself, (i even felt! LOL)
5" chunk of ice... bumper 4" off the ground =
doesnt look so bad in the pic... but its gotta get repainted cause of the huge spidar crack in it...
or maybe ill see about getting that piece done in CF.. that would look good right? lol
so back to stock bumper for now... i need to get a plate mount but for now Zip ties to the rescue!
its ugly.... stock bumper and took the Wings West lip off the rear, just incase lol
oh well... ill just get it painted when i get the new Skirts painted

. Nooooooooooooo, damn winter. Are you going have to pay, is insurance going to help out?
Its been snowing all weekend, so my cars been sitting in the driveway , un touched because it would be a slow blow, and my tires are shot.
I hope everything works out , and she gets back to normal , but atleast you have the plate in the right place
.

I got some more stuff to paint so im sure it wont be that much...

Why do you say that? Deductable?
Some insurance companies don't have one , or on some occasions you dont have to have one.

why did u change ur rear bumper? the 03+ LS rear is soooooo mucb nicer
I think they made a new law saying if trucks must clean the whole roof before drives or something like that
i duno i herd something on the news about it, and cops would have the right to pull over and check(although i don't get how they get up there)

Hey Dave, have we ever met? I'm not sure.....
If you took down his tags, you could have had the trucker's insurance cover that. It is his fault for having a sheet of ice on his load and not cleaning it off. Trucker's insurance companies are pretty easy to work through.
