New Fog Lights and the Front Bumper Mess

[sacul33]

So a couple weeks ago I ordered the Höen Endurance H11 fog light bulbs. I got them and they look good. I have not been able to take night time shots, I hope to soon. These are a couple shots.





Then the same week I was going to pick up my mom's car to take it to the dealership to get it repaired, and I pull into a parking space at her office. Of course I pick a parking space at the end near no cars, sure enough there is a 2 inch pvc pipe sticking up from the curb. I didn't see it, so when I heard the bumper scrape I pulled back. When I did this the bumper pulled apart from the car. It was still connected to the car but the sides were pulled off. I got a new bumper ordered, painted, and installed within two days. These are the pictures of the bumper.









I still have the old S-line bumper sitting in my basement, for looks.

wow nice work on the bumper. Probably sounded terrible when it happened too, huh?

damn there mustve been alot of force to pull all the bolts throught their threads! shit! i guess parking away even has its disadvantages! i park far too, but ill be on the look out for those boobie traps. Glad you already got the new one, how did the color match come out?

Wow thats crazy. Glad everything came out good though. now just remember that you don't have to pull all the way to the curb.

The colors came out great. I didn't think I pulled up that far, so I thought I only rubbed it. It sounded awful when I heard it pull off the car. I am glad to have it back now.
