do you need a whole new bumper or just the lower wrap. If you just need the lower wrap than go with WW. If you need the whole bumper than the only one that looks half way decent other than stock would be BC2 rear bumper. As for exhaust, I always liked the HKS hi-power muffler.

First up...
Did you get a police report?
Did you guys exchange insurance information?
Did you at least get his contact information?
Second..
Call your insurance company and let them know you need to report a claim and you need an estimate.
Call his insurance company (he is at fault) and report the claim with them and you need an estimate.
third...
If he is insured by state farm you are fucked... that is if you want any other parts that are not oem.
Get an independent estimate as well as one from your insurance and his insurance.
If he does not have insurance or you did not get his info, you can still make a claim with your insurance to get it fixed (uninsured motorist). If all of this goes on you then don't sweat it your insurance increase should be less than 2% and shouldn't effect you for 6 months or more

red light go-yes I did the insurence stuff(not my first time).he has AAA and I am gettin them to pay out.you are usualy only able to do it when they are at fault,they just don't like to tell you that you can.
dexter-I may have been joined since only january on this name,but I have been on this forum for about as long as you under 2 other names.(so don't ASSume)
vindication-yeah I nead the whole bumper,and the skirt.so far I am looking at the WW.oh and the exhaust,I already got covered wink,wink.
I'm not to used to visual mods,I spend all my time under the hoods of cars,so any help would be nice.

mathew-sorry,I have different names for a reason.
dexter-I wasn't trying to be an ass,just informing you can understand my previous comment. and can we say "type-O".I never said I was a good speller,in fact I never even graduated high school,nor do I intend on gettin a high school diploma.Just so I can prove what can be done without one.

does the P5 rear bolt onto the MSP?
can I use P5 kits?
nope, cant use p5 kits. the msp rear end is... not wider, but longer. you would have to extend the sides of the lip/kit somehow and/or mold it on.
you looking for something suttle or crazy?
wicked
12-08-2004, 03:28 AM
somthing suttle,I like the factory one,but I don't want a add on lip,but if I have to,then I will probaly go with the WW since they have great fitment and quality.
and the fact that I haven't seen many other kits.

maybe if you spoke english and made sense people would be more willing to answer sensibly
besides, if you got rear ended, a body shop will work with the other guy's insurance to bring your car back to OEM condition, what is your question anyway?

it's not going back to OEM.I got 2 apraisels(spelling?),and then he paid me out right in cash.
$2093
for
bumper
bumper cover
impact foam
bumper lip
intermidiate pipe
exhaust muffler
and some misc.including paint,and labor.
so I am going aftermarket,and anything that the 2G's won't cover I got no problem paying out of my own pocket.

I went ahead and ordered the WW lip.
