has anyone ever been hit in the rear and had to replace the back bumper? if so, how much did it cost? i was reading up that the bumper absorbers have to be replaced too. ive taken it to a body shop but the idiot wouldnt give me an estimate because he said they only do insurance estimates.

 

its a DIY job man....it'll take you 3-4 hours , which includes waiting for the liquid wrench to soak into the two rails of bolts on the bumper. u can begin by the lower rail and then get the trunk trim by the tail lights out of the way and get the 3 bolts inside on each side. you will also have to remove the tail lights to get to the upper rail of bolts...pretty easy.

 

thanks man. sounds easy but it will probably end up taking me a whole day. i cant wait.
