was driving straight last night when i did the "oh crap i gotta turn", jerked into the turn lane, hit some gravel and slid about 15mph into a 94 civics rear bumper. damage to his vehicle was minimal, only some scrapes where my licence plate bolts hit his bumper. The cops didn't show up, and i insisted that if he wanted it repaired, to go through me since i know a couple guys into small fender bender repair. he seemed pretty cool, he said he'd wash his car and see if theres anymore damage and if he wanted to get it repaired, he'd call me. i just hope he doesn't try to screw me. anyways, heres the damage to my car. i dont really care about the bumper cover because the crack on the bottom of the headlight was already there, but i have to do something about the headlight (if someone has some headlights for cheap laying around, let me know please, lol i'll buy them right now)

anyways, heres the damage:



and the headlight:



oh, and just an fyi, this is just my 4cyl, not my 5.0 lol

if iwashmycar falls through, i have an extra headlight sitting in my garage, don't remember which side it is though. it's just a single headlight, though, no marker light or corner light. i'll even ship it to you for free. shoot me a PM if you want it.

Hey man if you still need a set of headlights I have a stock set in my garage, the passenger side inner marking light is busted but it looks like yours is good. Shoot me a PM or something if you want them.
