Default I done a bad thing yesterday.

I was over at my buddies house helping take off the hardtop (and doors). We decided to check out a new steakhouse in town. He thought we were all going to go in their car (4 of us), but his wife said she'd ride with her Mom, which meant I and he would go in my Jeep. I totally forgot his wife's car was behind me. His work car had been in front of me, but he moved it back in the driveway. Anyway, I backed up so as not to drive around the block and hit her car with the new trailer hitch I had just installed. Now my insurance will go sky high.

Well at least the hitch stopped you from running up over the hood! Of course that would have been a better photo op

Dont get the insurance involved... pay for it yourself.... It'll save you money... Besides, unless tha'ts all dirt, that bumper is beat anyways. (Give them your factory bumper, and get yourself a nice steel one...)

I bet if you scratched off some of the KIA's paint that the metal would be covered in SHLITZ labels

Look on the bright side.... both vehicles are still drivable.

Is that on a Sedona? If so, they are pretty easy to take off and replace. I need to replace my wife's rear bubmper and paint her front one, I was just looking at how they remove this weekend and does not look too complicated. Check with the local Junk yards or online to find a used one, and get it repainted, will prpbably cost less than your deductible and will not affect your insurance premium.

I'm with the others, no need to get insurance involved. Pay for it out of your own pocket, it won't cost as much as you think.
