I got hit yesterday in the parking lot the guy never saw me. I was in the lane and he backed into me and said it was my fault. When I called the cops he said he was going to kick my ***. The 911 operator heard him and I laughed at him. Now I don't want to look at the back of my car.

Too bad it wasn't your front bumper... otherwise i'd throw my 99/00 Garage Vary bumper on your car and let you claim it lol. I was surprised when State Farm wanted to replace mine when i got hit last year..... i bet they regretted it later though hahaha
Is it just bumper damage or is there sheetmetal damage to the rear quarters?

The guy was in a big work van, He never saw me. It's just the back bummper, just the bummper skin. I wish he had hit the front so I could put something nice. Rear bummpers I havent seen so much. If anyone knows of anything cool send me a link. Otherwise I'm going to put my Jim Ellis emp discount to good use.

It's either that or a Racing Beat add-on... or if you want to play hard... a GV rear bumper banana

that sucks. I've had several close calls in parking lots... saved each time by the wicked loud horns.

You can get some great air horns from Advance for like $20.

Bummer..
I had a near miss yesterday, my car was parked at my office between 2 SUV's and a truck came whipping in thinking the spot was empty. I'm standing there watching in horror. Fortunately the guy got on the brakes hard and stopped with inches to spare...
Then I went out and got myself a nice speeding ticket Ugh

Some people really don't need to have any distractions when they drive, because they are really bad at it anyway, I hope you have good luck with the situation and theres nothing like the expression of someone after they get thier *** kicked by a miata driver, but last weekend...my mom and her mercedes and my car had a meeting, starting at the front of my drivers side door and ending just in front of my back wheel. A few pretty white marks on the left side followed by a even prettier dent in the quater panel. My moms car, fine...well at least all the weight of a mercedes has a little *** behind it.
