About 3 days ago, on my way to school.. on the right turning lane, the guy in front of me did a "quick go and stop"( on the Allstate commercials). When i saw him he moved as if he was going to turn so i looked for the oncoming traffic, by the time i looked back i was at his bumper... but the cop didn't give me a ticket, so i guess thats a good sign. My bumper is going to cost me $600 for a new 1 with paint+ installation, and I'm going to put back my oem grill, since the S5 got cracked... But my parents got the $1,000 deductible... so I'm screwed.O yer, once we got out he said "Thank You" then the guy tried to lie, before i hit him i saw he had previous damage to his back bumper and when we came out i said you had damage right, he lied to my face and said No. I was like Wow... is this guy serious.Anyone selling a 06 blk front bumper? :sad:

Sorry about your accident, good thing is you are OK.

Why don't you buy the SE-R bumper?

Sorry to hear about the mishap. As far as his previous damage is concerned, there are ways to find out he was lying. Don't worry, the insurance company has ways they can determine what damage was pre-existing prior to the accident. It really wouldn't matter though because he has to have the entire rear bumper replaced anyway.

Sweet Contour Anyways, that sucks man, I actually like your front grill and I usually hate badgeless. I'd recommend getting another one when all is said and done.

I was thinking about that a lot, would that hurt me if i re-sell my car back to a dealership? if it does then I'm going back to the OEM bumper.
