I think the man up there is also telling you to put your license plates back on, heck he even helped ya out with one of the holes, your turn to punch the other one out and follow the law!

Screw the front plate.
I just met a great ding/dent repairman.
If you want, i can ask him if he can help out in this situation.

He can restore body panels and bumpers as well.
Hell, he can just about do anything.

Ya mala muh la?

ouch Steve I feel the pain man.. glad it didn't go higher and your safe so its all good.. for the front bumper why spend all that money getting a new and prepping it and painting it, why not just use that same bumper, just have them fix the hole.. it will be alot cheaper..

Well now you can call your car a Unicorn wanna be. Damn Steve that sucks just when you think you spent enough on your car something like this happens. But knowing you, you probably did that on purpose so you can buy a new bumper.
