Need a New Bumper
Any recommendation on where I can get a new bumper for an 04 Coupe?
As you can see from the pic below had a little accident with my neighbors tenant.

There were no witnesses, so its his word vs mine. We were both reversing into the street. I am going to try and get him to split the cost of a new bumper.

ouch.... well isn't it 50/50 for insurance?
hmm if you get yourself a good shop, they can deal with the insurance and install an aftermarket bumper from Eric within the claim. Good luck

And the story continues....
As mentioned earlier, I had a minor fender bender with my neighbors tenant. After exchanging information we both agreed to get estimates on the damage for our cars and meet up later.
My damage:
His damage (minor scratches):
So we meet up around 8:30 this evening. My estimate was 860.00 from FixAuto, his was 534.60 from Eurasia Auto??. I proposed that he pay me 163 which was half of the difference and call it even.
Everything was going well until I said I will draft up a "contact" indicating that we both agree not to go the collision centre and not to report this to our insurance companies. As this point he and his GF start to get nervous and decide to back out of the deal.
In order to protect myself I decided to go to the collision centre and report the accident. To my surprise the guy already went to the reporting centre earlier in the day and reported the accident to the his insurance company(as per the person who works there).
Basically the guy tried to screw me over by paying me for the damage even though he already reported all of this to the insurance company and the collision centre, hoping that I wouldnt do the same and then I would appear at fault for the accident.
Now I wait to see if he actually reported the accident to his insurance company.
