Sad news....
What caused it ? My best guess is ... Gas leakage, fuel return kit/line failure + hot exhaust?
Since insurance co isn't paying for it... No investigation is conducted. I was driving on 395 S at normal speed and smelled strong ordor of gas.... Pulled over, saw fire+ smoke coming from the rear bumper, just above the exhaust system.... Fire department arrived shortly after.
I had no time to remove my duty gear except for my gun belt. My duty vest, winter gear, leather jacket, hats, iPad, iPhone 5, cash... All history!!! If the incident happened after 04-01-13, I'd get a replacement valued at $50k for this G. It's time to walk away. I'm glad I walked away safely.
My department wouldn't pay for my new duty vest. I'm wearing ones from last decade now. Hopefully, it stills work :-)
Take care

Damn Ned...i just saw this (see how much I come on the boards now). That sucks. How bad is the damage? Would you be interested in selling the entire car?
Guys,
I'm parting this car for sure now. It has been 4 months since the accident.
I've looked into " making her live" again option. My body shop has turned down the project due to the fact that we couldn't locate/able to find the true authentic TopSecret rear bumper+rear quarters. TopSecret hadn't replied since they had discontinued this G-Force kit.
Hi-Tech, are you serious about buying this whole set up? I think I'd get more value by selling it part by part. Can some one post picture for me with the current condition?
