Unhappy My 04 got hit

Well, so on my way home from work I was pulling into the BP on Dundee Road, just east of Rt 53. As I was pulling in and turning toward the pump, some kid just ahead of me, in a 98 Mustang, wasn't paying attention and smacked right into the front of my car. Wasn't even looking my way. Pics below... Luckily I just need a new front bumper. My poor baby! Just hit 6000 miles too.

I can see them. It looks bad, but a bumper replacement should be easy for a body shop. Just go to a good one. And I'm assuming the mustang guy is paying?

you should try to get some extra cash with this so you can get the tsunami lip to go along with your new bumper

damn that sucks atleast it wasnt nothing too serious... the kid is paying for the damages right???

my friend got hit by a car when she was about to leave a gas station making a right turn out of it and this guy makes a left turn into the gas station and drives right into her.. I thought cars drove on the right side of the lane not the left :S

He is paying for it. To top it off, it was his friend's Mustang. Apparently his friend was already fixing this kids car. Their insurance will be paying. I was in no way at fault. The minute we hopped out of our cars he was like, "oh my God. I'm so sorry. It was my fault. Is this a new car?" DUH!

We use a shop called Arlington Auto Body. They're great. Totally getting OEM. And I'm not going to try to get a lip. Keeping the car stock now that I plan on getting rid of it in the future.

My dent popped out in the sun today! AH! Still has all the scratches though, and there's a little lump/crease at one point. I'll take pics later. At least I don't look as stupid driving it around now.

Not hurt at all. We pulled into some parking spots there and got out. He saw the car seat in the car and was like, "I'm just so glad your kid wasn't in the car." I think it freaked him out a bit that I could've had a kid in there with me.

Not hurtin' at all.

Here it is after the dent came out.

$518.08 to repair the bumper. They can heat it to fix the small bump in it that's left. Phew. Just faxed the kid the estimate. Should be all set!
