Default Silly Question

Well, seems that my TC is a magnet for other people. I've been hit by 3 different people since I bought the car. Of the damage done I've only had the passanger door replaced. The other persons inssurance footed the bill.

What I was wondering if the Scion branded body kit is full bumpers or just extentions on the stock set up. Heres a couple shots of the damage areas.


If the pictures are clear enough you can see the 4 screw marks from were I was rear ended nice hit and run on 880.


No clue when this happened to the front bumper, noticed when I washed it a month or so ago.

Anyways, if I bought the ground effects kit from McGeorge HERE would it replace the damaged areas?

Thanks in advance.

Heres the door before it was fixed, got backed into in a parking lot.

the GE kit wont cover those areas up. your best bet is just to get some touch up paint from the dealer or buy some off http://www.paintscratch.com/. ive been meaning to get some touch up myself. and no there are no scion/toyota branded kits that cover up those areas. the only scion/toyota branded kit avail is the GE kit. thats about it. hope it helps.

Thats what I was afraid of, the rear bumber needs to be replaced, the bumber actually has indentations from the persons licence plate screws. Can't just paint over that.

if you want an aftermarket kit take the car in for insurance and you can just pay the difference between the aftermarket and the stock bumpers. thats how i got my kit. paid $1286 for a full kaminari kit patined and installed.

I was gonna say. Your insurance should cover most if not all of that on a new car.
