I hit a damn big ol' piece of tire on my way home Sunday morning. I couldn't dodge the thing because I was going too fast, I hit it pretty good but hoped I ran straight accross it.
Anyways, here are some pictures of the damage.

Anyone know how much this will cost me? Should I go with my insurance (I have $250 deductable)
This sucks.

I say look for a used front bumper in the classifieds. Not sure which you have (Looks like chrome silver) but both silver colors are pretty common in the classifieds. Might be an option.

I think I'm going to let my insurance take care of it.
