Rear ended
Well I see threads everyday about Evos in accidents and now its finally happened to me. Some douche bag slamed on his brakes a couple cars in front of me and basicly the rx-7 behind me couldnt stop in time. We were going about 40mph but looks like I will have to replace part of the exhaust and get a new bumper. The exhaust was bent into the driveshaft so now I am riding around with just a downpipe 
.
If anyone knows where to get jdm evo 9 bumpers for cheap (painted or not) let me know. All the ones I have seen when searching are in the $700 plus range. Ill try to get some pics if I can find someone to lend me a camera.

I was rear ended and got the JDM bumper for 699 from SpeedElement.
But you'll probably get money for crash beam from Insurance anyways which is like $300 for part only.
Because you don't/can't have crash beam for JDM bumper, so I bet it would save you money even with 700 bumper.

and yes it was an FD rx-7 and was lowered which basicly made his head light hit my exhaust
I will be contacting insurance 2marrow so hopefully everything gets worked out, just found out a twist to the story tho...the Rx-7 driver has a suspended license
