Needed: New Rear Bumper, Black 2004
I was driving today and got rear ended, I was going into a corner going about 20 miles per hour, and I got rear ended by a 16 year old black girl going 45 miles per hour. My back bumper has 2 holes in it from her licence plate bracket, and its dropped about a half inch on the passanger side.
The cop wouldn't allow me to tell my side of the story, he accepted that i had "cut this girl off" which i didnt because she was following me for a half mile, she admited i taped my breaks several times before actually slowing down (she was following close) and the officer didnt even give her a damn ticket! The officer didnt take the names of anyone in her vehicle, didnt take the name of my passanger, didn't file a report. I feel discriminated against. But the worst part is, I can't do anything about it because he wont file a report.
So if anybody can help me out with a back bumper, preferably black to help me with cost, that would be great. I'll pay you what it is worth, or we can talk about a trade of some sort.
Thanks alot,
Scott

i didn't want her to have my info, my luck she would show up in court injured and i would get sued, I think it will be cheaper to fix it myself since she didnt get a ticket for it. I can claim it on MY insurance and pay lots of money when my insurance goes up. Damn Michigan insurance no-fault crap

well, looks like I made up my mind, Southgate Mitsubishi wants $482 for the bumper, RRM wants $270ish for Evo 9 rear bumper. Looks like an easy choice there.

i kinda kept going over the details with my mom and we came up with the conclusion that maybe the cop was doing me a favor. It was clear the girls were lying and would take it to court. The officer advised me that people like that show up injured in court frequently when he came to talk to me. He didnt right up any report of any kind. So it looked like he did me a big favor.
