So, back in January, I was rear-ended. So I had to drive around with a bum (really? Censoring the word B U M? Come on, guys. Let's turn this censor down. This is ridiculous) bumper for nearly two months before I had a chance to fix it.
Yeah, I wad mad, but kept my cool. I didn't feel bad for holding them up because the other driver was at fault. An automated vehicle could have been in the same accident. Nevertheless, we got the insurance check and ordered brand new (nearly) parts!
The bumper bar and foam are off an 06 Vibe somewhere in Michigan. Thank you mystery Vibe!
After cutting the zip ties and undoing the three bolts that were holding the cover on
Removed the rebar and foam. And wouldn't ya know it... not a lick of sheetmetal damage!
I've done this picture before. Except the bumper up top looked like the one on the bottom.
And here she is, all fresh and clean after an automated wash to get all the grime off her (she was salty as a french fry). It fits well, and the color isn't too off. It'll all blend in eventually.
