what is it with you and your rear bar.

You must be in the wrong place at the wrong time again.

I cant be believe you only got hit where you put the club cj sticker. You should be able to claim that on insurance.

just a shunt guys, no problem, i dont think the bar will be repairable, its shredded at the lhs mounting point.

troy, the sticker, yeah insurance job :)
thanks for your concern.

That looks painful, hope everything is smoothed out soon. I think the truck driver must have been dazzled by ur car and wanted to get a closer look, mayb at ur new boost gauge ;)

What the !!??
Another bumper bar to be replaced? Someone here could get that and put that on their VRX. Looks very fixable... .

holy cow mate. That mark on the bar is your chassis leg! I'd get that to a body shop ASAP. You may have done more damage than you think.

i know shamrock, i`m on it :)
i`m seeing the assessor tomorrow and will certainly bring that up.
that c shape is the chassis mounting point i believe.
judging by the cannon, the bar has been punched in about 3 inches.

Know the feeling Steve, my rear bar got whacked a few weeks ago by some ignorant Kia driver :( Also got damage to the metal intrusion bar behind, make sure insurance check behind there.

New bar on its way for me. Good luck with your repairs.
