this is what a 5mph crash can do to the front bumper...
anyone know where I can get a new front bumper cover at a good price?

I feel for ya, GiN.
I had this horrible revelation about a week after I bought the car. I was standing in the garage, admiring it (as is my wont) and then I suddently realized, "holy crap - it doesn't have a front bumper!" (not a standard one, anyway - it's more of a nose than a bumper). It's a beautiful design, but not very practical where that's concerned.

Amazing, truly looks like a talking 8!
I would suggest to look for and 8 owner who have already replaced his front bumper for an aftermarket one. I've seen some adverisers on the board.
But hey, have you been outbraked by an Accord

you might want to get someone to check out the light cluster too, when my car got hit, it didnt hit the light, but it damaged it somehow, inside the fender, so I had to have that replaced, just a suggestion... and yes... I feel your pain on that one.

I thought I was going to cry, and it is not my car. We need to stick together.
Thanks for the info, left me know when you have fixed it.
Sorry about that!
