Help. Need replacement front bumper. - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

axss · 02-03-2013, 01:28 PM

So thanks to the snow I currently need a new front bumper.

If any of you guys have suggestions on where to get one for an affordable price I will love you forever.

Better yet if any of you have an ultramarine front bumper to sell let me know

You guys are the best. Thank you.

I was T-Boned in Chattanooga. GEICO is sending my car to salvage. I don't know where they are sending it but you may want to called Advanced Collision (Chattanooga) and ask for Mike with GEICO.

He might be able to see where they are sending the car. I think they are going to try to sell it for parts.

Is it something not worth trying to claim on insurance? Sounds like a good time to maybe pick an aftermarket front clip if you're so inclined...

I would do an ugly repair until spring unless it's really ruined... It would hurt to get a new one and get snow screwed again.
