You should get stock tail lights... But that sucks man >.>
05-30-2011
oh trust me, thats the only good outcome of this.. now i have a reason to go back to stock tail lights. Altezzas= Worst choice. idk what i was thinking.
05-30-2011

Is that paint taken off your bumper or a really big scuff?
05-30-2011
its paint taken off...
05-30-2011
some people should be shot. id bet you cant do a gtp rear bumper and stock catback(for dual exhaust) for less then it would take to fix that and get it repainted

Win for you supplied by mecheers

im gonna go to a junkyard and see how much a gtp rear bumper taillights and cat back will cost me.
05-31-2011
anybody have any idea how much it would cost me? just so i know a price range before i go in there.

That sucks man. That has happened to me twice now. Some prick got my door/door frame/fender really good and then someone got the bumper cover and quarterpanel on the other side. At least the bumper didnt crack. Mine did :/ I did a cheap fix with fiberglass kit and paint. It looks like ****, but Ill take some pics tomorrow. I don't think youd have too much trouble covering that up. I would try sanding just the smudged areas and touching it up like that instead of sanding the whole corner down and painting, it would be really hard to blend that large of an area.

I didn't see this the first time I posted. Junkyards around here wanted $150 for the bumper cover and like $50-75 for a tail light. Most of them I called had no heads or tails tho. Don't know about the catback
06-01-2011
ouch man. yea your bumper could be repaired but if your going to paint a bumper might as well be a gt bumper.
06-01-2011
That sucks bro :/

youd still have to pay the deductible if you go through insurance. painting it wont cost much, ~$250 and that might be high. if you can find a GT/GTP bumper cheap snatch it up.
you could try it yourself if you think you are up to it. its all about the prep! painting is nothing, its all the prep that makes it look good.
