Got rear-ended at a red light tonight.. Im fine thank god Damage isnt too crazy but enough to get a new bumper. Im not exactly pissed because I wanted an Mtech rear anyways Any vendors with Mtech Rears pm me with a quote shipped to 11520.



How much do you think it'll be to paint & install a mtech rear?

There might be some m-techs in the classifieds...

So, err, I don't know whether to congratulate you or express my condolences... either way, I hope that you make the absolute best of this situation and hope your car is fixed in no time!

Isn't a "Happy Accident" a smoothie-related geriatric term?

Sorry about the accident but the M Tech rear as a replacement is a big time silver lining.

Yea it seems alright, might need to be buffed a lil but it looks fine. Im lucky he didnt hit the tailight. It looks like ill just have to replace the rear bumper. Im not sure about the PDC sensor he knocked off though..

SUX .. You'll need a pre-painted PDC sensor too. Trust the other driver had proper insurance so you'll be on your way to an Mtech!
