Back In Action

It has been over a month since I was in a pretty bad accident that caused my car nearly $12,000 in damage. I got it back now and I got the sport bumper put on this time

Heres what she looked like before.


This was what happened to her.


And here she is now!





Just a question, you can see another silver piece hanging behind the bumper a little lower. Is that normal?

That piece is black i think, maybe the body shop painted it too. Was there frame damage or something because that doesnt look like 12000 in damage?

Yea, that lower piece is usually black. I believe it is there to increase aerodynamics in an effort to increase fuel economy.

I will confirm what everyone else said - yes that piece is normal, and it's usually black. Because the body shop had to paint the bumper to match your car, maybe they were not aware to leave this piece black and they painted it as well.

Looks good man.
