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..
i dont think insurance will give enough money for mtech bumper... unless it is ripped or cracked badly, they wont replace it... all they are going to do is just make body shop fix it and paint them...

He doesnt want to report it to his insurance so hes paying for the repairs. I already told him im getting a new bumper and hes cool with it so yea

ANY VENDORS HERE OFFER PRE LCI, WITH PDC, MTECH REAR BUMPERS? I cant find one anywhere other than online sites that look fishy..

Happy to hear that you are all right. Hopefully you'll get the M-tech out of this. Tell him that your neck is starting to hurt and the cure might be M-tech for the front, too.

There is no better time/excuse for not getting the M-Tech. Do it, man.
And please make sure that guy pays, I hope you filed a police report. GL

I'd call the guy first. He might just say he'll pay because he's just one accident away from having his license revoked or whatever. Then go with him to his bank, watch him take the cash out, have him hand it over and have him sign a paper that states he's giving you the money to settle bumper damage he caused to your car and then go get that Mtech. If he's not willing to pay, then let him know that you will be going through the insurance company. G/L
