Default Rant: Got rear ended this morning (pix inside)

So i was driving to work this morning and just finished dropping off my nephew at his grandmothers house. So im waiting to making a left turn and all of a sudden, BAM i get hit sitting at the light. I get out and tell the guy wtf is wrong with u.

The damage isnt bad but the car is 8 months old.

On the bright side, I can get my fabulous canards put on and painted at the same time.

What a fabulous way to start out your morning. I hate it when people don't pay attention on the road. Sorry this happened to you. I hope you don't have any injuries.

sorry for the damage. look on the bright side that no one was hurt, it's not your fault and the damage seems relatively minor and you can get some insurance money off of it

Sorry this happened man. Maybe the driver was so fixated on how great your vehicle looks and had "highway Hypnosis?" In any event, maybe the body shop can bondo the reflectors (if you don't like them) on the new bumper skin prior to painting and you will have a win win situation.
