Default i got rear-ended. also got a day picture of my car.

well i was stopped at a light for a while, this lady wasn't paying attention and bumps into me. left her plate numbers dented in my bumper. her insurance is paying to get it fixed this week.

i finally got a picture of my car in the daytime. enjoy!

That sucks. It's not only the damage to the bumper. More than likley there is damage to the interior eneregery absorber, brackets and housings. I would take it to a Nissan dealer that has a body shop. They would know what needs to be replaced in these situations. Don't let her insurance adjuster talk you into a premature settlement for the damage done to your vehicle. Make sure to have it checked out and repaired by a competent facility that will repair it to your satisfaction. Good luck and keep us posted.

Sorry about the ding. You figure that sitting at the light is safe then some dummy smacks into your rear.

Damn that sucks!

Aside from the paint damages... are the plate marks actually dinged into the bumper? Does it recess in?

Thats not bad at all. you should get it checked and make sure none of the parts under the bumper got damaged. other than that a new coat of paint should fix that right up.

best of luck

LOL I will have to post pics of my impact. 5k in walk around estimate... again some lady wasnt paying attention now my car is going into a custom body shop for the repairs and some work. I am having a kit put on it... hell the lady's insurance company is fronting a lot of the labor!

Do NOT let them replace it with a "reconditioned" skirt they will try to do that.

..... Well you were driving towards the same sun and you didn't hit the person in front of you! Glad to see you got your car all fixed. Where did you take it? Washington drivers blow... So does this cold *** weather!!!

Jason

P.S. We should get a 350z meet going. Our regional section is so slow.

But your neck *hurts horribly* if you make any sort of movements right, such as nodding "yes" to this question..... I see lawsuit $$$. If it doesn't hurt, I can help -- I think I have a bat laying around somewhere .

Hopes your luck improves with your car.... $hit it was like last week your car was fixed lol.

Mary,

Did your exhaust get damaged at all in the accident? If so, I found the perfect exhaust for you!!!


Straight up JDM...
