Default Wreckage part 2 :(

Some of you may remember when I whacked my bumper just two weeks ago...

Apparently that wasn't good enough so I finished the job yesterday (looking at this makes me physically ill)

I avoided a big ole pile up in an icy blizzard but caught a guard rail in doing so. No damage anywhere but the front end (and my pride of course). The grille, headlight and radiator took the brunt of it - not even a scratch on the aluminum bumper.

So I had a good conversation with the owner of the shop while waiting for my rental, seems like a real good guy.

At least I finally made the Flatbed Club

If you have a spare clear corner layin' around, flag me down..... I'm the one rockin' the black Toyota Sienna with the 19" Axis wheels ;-)

Default That sucks Randy! At least you are ok. Doesn't look like you blew the airbags, which is surprising.

I had a slow impact with mine and blew the passenger side bag. That was an expensive repair for the insurance company. On the bright side now you will have a fresh front end with now rock chips...:-) And welcome to the flatbed club!!!

Default Your damage looks worse than mine, but I blew one bag. I must have hit in that sweet spot.
