My Ride: 2006 BMW M5, Silverstone with black extended leather, brushed aluminium trim, Nav Pro, Logic 7, PDC, 35 % tint.
Default

I was stopped at a light, and someone rear-ended me.

The person who hit me gave me her business card, and she is the deputy director of the Attorney-General of Ontario! And what's worse, she didn't want to put it through insurance, she wanted to pay me directly. Yeah, right, because it was her fault.

My rear bumper is scratched, I will post pictures soon.

On the lower right side of the bumper there is a square piece of plastic about 3" x 3" that is now missing. Does anyone know what this is for? Inside there looks like somekind of assembly that you screw something into.

Thanks.

Too bad about the accident. The square piece of plastic covers a screw hole for a tow hook.
