First Accident Always The Worst!!

[cpacowboy]

Due to the extremely awesome height of the AV, (and possible due to my lack of proper looking behind me) bumped a smaller pickup this morning with the back bumper. Initial inspection did not reveal any damage, but upon further inspection, the right corner of the rear bumper has been pushed up to the bed

Has anyone else had the misfortune of having to straighten out the bumper?? I looked underneath and could not see (it was dark) what supports the rear bumper. I think all I have to do is straighten out the support, whatever there may be. However, if anyone has any suggestions about how to proceed, I would appreciate your help.

Someone on here backed into something also....they posted pics of the cladding off and showed the dented bumper.....

The post may be of some help....try searching for it somehow....

cpacowboy,
I did just what you are talking about. I ran into a concrete pole and bent my bumper on the driver's side. I was able to take the bumper off and heat it up with a torch and hammer out the dent. It is not perfect but with the cladding on you really can't tell.
