Some Broad Busted My Beast!!

Stopped at a red light about 6 cars back. on my way to the South Florida Meet.
Didn't even see her coming ...... BANG, CRUNCH, OUCH!! The Beasts rear bumper, and rear PDC are toast. My 34 year old son has a sore neck and upper back, I seem to be OK.
Just had the M5 detailed an hour before this careless AIR-HEAD hit us.
Needless to say, I'm not a happy camper!
What a Broken Bimmer Bumper Bummer.
Sorry, just needed to vent.
.......

Damage doesn't look too bad. Luckily, you and your son are ok. The bimmer bumper and PDC can be fixed and everything will be as good as new!

Glad you both are doing OK.

As stated below it is fixable. If you get to Denver look me up and you can drive mine.

Older white Saturn. Her entire front end was smashed in {hehe}. She even sat in her car after hitting us and put on her make-up and combed her hair while waiting for the cops to arrive. What an AIR-HEAD! Didn't even ask us if we were OK.

That really bites. I got hit by a girl in a Kia about 1 year ago. Similar damage, gladly, you both are ok which is the most important thing. The girl's insurance will pay for everything right? Good lucky with the fixing, will come out like new!
