Default crashed my car

Yesterday on my way to the Gumball 3000 event, i hit an an Expedition and i got the majority of the damage. What sucks is I just recently had my bumper repainted and my car was detailed yesterday. Despite the fact I crashed my car, I still showed my car at the event. Some of the stickers are covering the damage. People thought I was in the race

^^ Are you sure? I think the insurance agent would agree they are messed up and the other guy should have to pay for a new set. I might know a guy who knows a guy with some custom sets. Possibly a custom "Gum Ball" set

I am really sorry to hear that.. I like your car but too many gumball stickers

At least your front bumper wasn't fiberglass or it would have been shattered.
