Will you let your insurance company pay for it or you'll pay by yourself? How much deductible ?

ur G gets a bruise and the nothing happend to the honda, and ur calling the honda a POS? hahah.. maybe ur a POS driver.

anyways, good luck with getting it fixed. i would suggest OEM... but a lot of people here love big O fiberglass kit with speed holes in them.

get whatever you want.

The material and shape of the G35 Rear Bumper does not allow it to be popped out into place. The bumper is pretty much plastic. It cannot be shaped well with heat or any other method, because of the warped shape of the bumper. It would never look right again. Same thing happened to me and it required a brand new rear which runs about $300ish from the dealer, maybe cheaper on Ebay or something.

Yes boo to ford that focus crumbled like a piece of paper and caught my jacket on fire with it, which i might add was my favorite jacket of the time..stick with the gs!

as far as the accident my driveway is pretty much a game of chance when i leave it every morning due to cars double parking and leaving visibility to zero so that morning i was lazy and had to make it to class i skipped the extensive search and moved my car just a lil too far trying to make a LEFT only to meet a truck speeding down my residential doing 50...we live and we learn.
