Now that does suck, sorry to hear it. No chance you could turn it in on insurance?

Yeah, not the cool kind of drifting, heh. Only time I've done something even close to that is last time it snowed, in a big parking lot, at 20 mph

Cheap and a one-month timeframe sounds about like what my finances need--I still don't even have any of the recommended reliability mods, so I may even hold off on installing the bumper for a while longer than that.

The shop I got an estimate from said $1200, with a 10 or 20% discount if I wasn't using insurance.

$1000 deductible. So even if I couldn't get a used bumper from someone, it's a wash.

Wish it was an SUV I'd run into so just the hood got done in, then I could get a nice vented one... Bah. So it goes.
