Check this out, I was on my way home Friday and sitting at the end of a line of cars at a stop light (sitting still for at least 10 seconds) and I look up in my mirror just in time to see this girl look up from whatever she was screwing around with and slam on her brakes (too late).
She slams into the back of my SVT and pushes me into the Saturn Vue in front of me, Here are the results.
The best part? She may not be insured and it looks like she may have given both me and the police a bad phone number. At least I did get a cop involved so he has all her other info.

OUCH!! Not another one!! Are you ok Steve-O?
DAmn this winter has been mean to Foci...
Atleast this looks easily fixed after new bumpers. So wile your new bumper come with the lower grille? If you get an extra one, think of me...I'm looking for one...

Damn that really sucks. Besides the bumpers, looks like you might need a new tip.. or an aftermarket exhaust.
Hopin for a speedy recovery for the SVT

Hey man...how's the neck. That just sucks. My wife got tagged the same way three times over the past two years. Two of the three had insurance. The other one that broadsided her...well he ran off, and we never got anything. Let's not count the deer that she clipped either...
Well that was all in the (now gone) civic. She's got the wagon now...uhoh...
Well hope you are ok. Stay true to the SVT...

I'm fine and my six year old daughter was with me but she didn't even flinch when we got hit (one tough little cookie there).
It's probably going to get an FRPP Borla and an SAP diffuser, The old diffuser look's O.K. in the pics but it has a chunk knocked most of the way out of it.

Oh, funny guy
I'm giving the rear grille to Focinite since he has no use for it.
Like I said, The one on my car is junk. You can have it if you want it.

I wouldn't let the body shop here lick the dirt off my tires
I did let the pinhead down there do an estimate though, he couldn't even get the muffler right. He had the flex pipe instead and wanted to argue with me about whether it was the right part.
The guy wouldn't even look at the parts list I had already printed off. I'm just a dumb parts guy you know (I know 02 knows
)
The car is going to Gales auto body in Blaine Monday.
