Default rear turn signal help!

Some douchebag hit my car when I was in a parking lot. He or she didn't leave anything... the damage: some marks on the bumper (I was able to clean off) and my rear turn signal part is retarded.

Pictures




How do I fix that?
THanks in advance!

Jeff

my guess is you'll need a new bumper.

You have to take the inner plastic off(along with the wheel) on that side and screw it back in...taking the bumper off would be an easier way but it can be done....it's a real big pita...good luck

Actually, just remove the tail light and you should be able to see the damage.

I had the same thing happen. It's not that easy of a fix to get the tail signal back in place. There is a small clip on the inside towards the left front side of the light. You'll have to remove the brake light above and the inner wheel well panel, in order to pop the clip back in place. It's a bit tricky, but you use one hand through the brake light hole to hold the light fixture and clip in place. With the other hand you use a long flathead screwdriver, go thru the wheel well and push the clip back into place.
