I noticed today that some jack-a$$ hit me from behind and didn't have the conscience to leave a note or anything.

Having said that, the damage isn't THAT bad, but it's just aggravating.

The far right side of the bumper is where I got hit, on the chrome part. You can definately see a dent, and the right side of the bumper is now touching the rear 1/4 panel that's behind the rear wheel, and on the left side there's like a 2" gap.. I thought it might have been a trailer hitch from a truck backing into me, but the chrome on the bumper isn't scratched at all, just dented.. so I don't know what it could be.

Any idea how much a bumper would run? It's not that noticable, but I can't stand having damage on my cars.
 






LIST on an 01 with OUT the sensors is $275.00
( just for the chrome bumper )
with the sensors $339.00 ( less metal more money, go figure )

I would go ahead and get the two right brackets too $16.00 to $10.00.
This is all new OEM stuff.

You can likely go much less from a junkyard. Brandywine is down near you and they have a TON of stuff. My shop has been buying from them for years.
