    Heading to work this morning on wet roads. I stopped for a light and the guy behind me didn't. Pushed me about 6 ft out into the intersection. Only visible damage so far is the rear bumper, i haven't looked underneath yet. Anxious to get it on a lift to look underneath. The area around the plate looks like it was compressed during the impact. The dodge that hit me had oil leaking onto the front bumper and must've pushed something into the fan....cause it sounded terrible after the hit. Pics to follow.
    Now i'll at least be looking for a new rear bumper. In trying to save a few bucks I'm pretty sure i can pull the old one off...and install the new one. I'll definitely be searching here for any "how to's" Anything else that i should look at considering the rear impact?
    Any input on where to find a new bumper cheaply? I know i can probably find one at a local yard and have it repainted. Would prefer new though.

    Thanks in advance!!
