Wreck

Wreck
Someone was driving poorly, so I thought I would show him, and rammed him!
Ok, not really, but I did hit someone from behind and crunched my Shinka.![Frown](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/frown.gif)
Doesn't appear to be anything but cosmetic damage, maybe one of the fog lights. I was going aboput 5mph at the time.

I did the same thing may years ago while driving a Chevy 1 ton. However, instead of damage I touched them bumper to bumper and thought I'd rubbed the curb (I was still looking at traffic approaching from the left as we were both making right turns at a red light).
I decided it was good to go so I mashed the gas to compensate for the friction against the curb and pushed their little sedan right out into traffic. No harm, no foul, like I said, it was clear and *I* was going to pull out. With my *ahem* encouragement they decided it was clear enough too and took off. I sure got some shocked, big-eyed looks through their rear window though. :eyecrazy:
Anyway, sorry about the damage. If you're forced to buy a pair of stock foglights and don't need the driver's side I'll buy it from you. In fact, if you're replacing your driver's side fog I might like to have the busted one. My lens is cracked - if yours is damaged in some other way I might be able to use it to repair mine.
Hope your `8 gets her face fixed soon,

I have it back and it looks as new. Body shop did a good job of the waxing after the fix too.

Glad to hear your car is fully restored. Hope you have many happy miles getting reacquainted.
