Nice. We looked down there a little before settling on Charlotte. Liked Greenville alot...very cool little downtown area they built up there. Technically I live in SC, just over the border in the Fort Mill/Tega Cay area.

I always wonder how my insurance can do with rear bumper damage.
Tony, how much did you spend on this DIY?

Actually, just my time. I had everything left over from when I painted the other parts a while back. But if I had to buy everything, sandpaper, cleaner, adhesion promoter, primer, paint, reducer, clear, hardener, thinner maybe around 130.00 or so.
