Literally.

I don't have photos uploaded yet but picture a rear bumper hit in the corner by a blind/drunk/underage joyrider (pick one) while I was parked safely on the street under a street lamp.

Then picture it with a new bumper, painted and shiny.

Oakville Mazda had a spare MY07+ rear bumper lying around in a different colour, and gave it to me for a very good price, repainted and installed!

Although i wish i spent that money on other things than repairs...they did a great job and the 3 is back to looking normal within a week!

Thanks Andrew, maybe next year I can spend my money on more productive things. Like a nice suspension, wheel/tire upgrade.

noooo not destroyed.

i was in a neighborhood up in upper middle and trafalgar.

Had it been destroyed at least I could've maybe catch the guy/girl, go through insurance, make the person pay, instead of coming out of my pocket.

I miss bumpers that were unpainted, ABS plastic.
