Angry Kurookie bumper VS Possom aftermatch

Something told me not to take the G out tonight because it was raining, but hey I DID ANYWAY!

So I'm driving down a pitch dark highway, and them BAM! A possom appears out of nowhere and I try to avoid it but couldnt, then all I heard was something that I'm guessing was bone to passenger side wheels.

I finally pullover at my destination and notice that my driver side sidemarker is dangling off its mount and the passenger sidemarker is nowhere to be found...my also new jdm clear corners...I then look at my front bumper and a crack was found near the passenger sidemarker, and some cracks on the front right side of my BRAND NEW KUROOKIE BUMPER!!! The cracks arent major, but it seriously affects the look of the bumper now...

I'm hoping this would be fixable because if it isnt, $550 will be out of my pocket for another kurookie bumper...Will post pics when there's light outside.

*PICS*
Replaced jdm clear corners with some oem orange ones that I tinted awfully, will do for the meantime until the new pair comes in. And the crack.


Repairable?

Sorry to hear.

Possums and racoons are everywhere around here too.

Hope it's fixable. Best of luck.

Sorry to see that...I've had to fully lock my tires at 40 to miss one before. Fully locking my tires at 60 made me miss the first deer, but not the one following behind it.

I cringe anytime I hit a frog POP or squirrel...it's the time of year all the animals are coming out of hibernation.
