Default Not a good month for my BSP

First this



And just this weekend this:








so now im thinking of just getting a new body kit. im thinking maybe the buddy club 2.
Does anyone know any good places to order from? the person that hit my car while it was parked in the driveway of my g/f's house is paying for the rear end damage.
i saw the buddy club 2 kit on krazykustoms.com i just want to make sure there are no fitment issues. Does anyone know a good place to order from???

the buddy club kit is one of hte worst, if not the worst fitting kit on the market for our cars.

i would stick with oem, or another urethane kaminari, if it was flex fiber or fiberglass i am sure it would have shattered to pieces.

well it was fiberglass kit and so far the bumper still hasnt fallen off..lol
The flex fiber looks promising but im just not sure where to order from?
Somebody has to have some recomendations.
I was planing on going to the meet but i didnt have enough time to scramble some rear brackets to put back my oem rear bumper and to make things worst, ill be out of town in vegas this weekend for my b-day so i have to wait untill next weekend to even start getting quotes for the damage and i still have to find someone to order the kit from. Im debating on keeping the kaminari kit or buddy club 2.

any suggestions??

Small update:
So this weekend i went to get quotes for the rear end damge and just off the visual inspections, i got quoted 2500-2500.00. I talked to the father of the girl who hit me and most likely they are going through insurance. My question is this, since its going through insurance, will it decrease the value of my car? and will it get reported on carfax.com? Also can i get his insurance to pay for the rear bumper off my bodykit?

No, no aftermarket parts are covered, you will get a brand new OEM bumper...

Won't really decrease the value, unless the car is rulled total and the title is salvage.

Yes, most accidents get reported on CARFAX

there is a way for you to get your bumper replaced instead of getting a oem one pm me for details.
