wrecked rear bumper - now fixed

I got my car back recently after being rear-ended about two weeks ago...forgot to post some pix earlier, but here's what I posted previously on another site: I got some pix of the car today….you can see the difference with the original rear bumper - how the lower portion of the bumper is colored with that faded black look…now I have it uniformed color matched…

Fortunately there was no structural damage to the car, just the bumper cover…it really took the hit.

responding to questions about having my wheels refinished:

the wheels had some curb rash, faded paint, etc...took them to a local powder coating shop in Huntington Beach and went with Anthracite semi-gloss...also painted the Infiniti cap and lug nuts...price was really good.....

Thanks Blue!! I'm pleased how it came out and how it rides...I had the HTechs on previously so it's a drastic change with the Eibachs...the ride and handling improved more so...
