On the bright side - damaging the rear is a lot less complicated than the front, w/ the intake cooler and other goodies. Hope you get your ride back soon, looking as good as new!

I just had someone back into my bumper a week ago, there is a small 1 inch crack, but for some reason there isnt paint damage (its rough, but black paint ) I nearly cried, but that is nothing to this. Glad to see your ok, and what the hell is up with people not stopping?

Was there no witnesses?

Hey, it can be fixed and you're ok. All in all, no worries as it's just a car.

Wow, sucks man. But I think you're still on the lucky side. Just think if it was the drivers side that hit the tree instead of the rear, I think you would gotten hurt.

Well all the damages doesn't look that bad, but might want to pay attention to under the car to see if there any broken/crack links and stuff like that.

Spoke to the shop, so far approx 13k estimate, he said its not the damage, the parts are VERY expensive. Each rims is almost $900, that pos wing is over 1k!!! He said its just a lot parts that need to be replaced and the frame isnt damaged at all. I will be going to the shop tomorrow and ill take pics of the car apart how it is right now. He at least im getting a JMD IX bumper
