First off, Merry Christmas!

After leaving my family's Christmas eve gathering, I was have trouble moving forward do to the snow. I was getting agrivated and decided to go into reverse to allow myself a head start. Well only thing I didn't realize is that there was a car behind me... >:|

I hit the car. It sounded pretty bad. I was not giving the car any gas, It was a slow roll with the brake slightly engaged. Anyway now I have 2 Screw dings on my bumper. No cracks or anything (its night so I cant tell atm).

Kinda sucks. The other car appeared that it may have a little damage. Looked like a small crack (vein) running through it (good thing it was in bad shape to begin with, and the owner prolly wont know).

My question is, how much is a replacemnt bumper? Its a silver 01 Grand prix GTP. The is in great shape. Perfect paint, no scratches or dings. I may just have to get it re painted. What do you think I should do?

Ill get some pics tmw during the day light. Its really not that bad, but im not a fan on have any dings on my cars
 


If what you saying is all of the story (meaning you don't find more damage with better light in the morning), with it being cold outside hopefully it didn't crack. If it didn't you can fix the little marks that you are describing with minimal work, except for paint.

I hope you told the owner of the other car what happened, even if their car is in "bad shape."

If your bumper cover is to badly damaged to fix, I would suggest contacting Ed Morad for a used one, use the link below.
