Glad you're OK Brendan! I'm confused... this guys bull guard flies off the front of his own truck? which means it had to pass right in front of his eyes? And the knuckle-dragger just keeps on driving? People continue to amaze me everyday...
"not my fault, I didn't do it, wasn't me, so... what do you expect me to do about it?"
Hell, the guy will probably sue you for drafting him close enough to disrupt the airflow around his car, thereby forcing his bull guard to break off, which now has cause him deep psycological pain and suffering!

Yup, exactly! It flew RIGHT over his windshield on top of his truck and swooped down in front of my car. It didn't even hit the road before it hit my front end

New front bumper? We'll see That would be the best thing to do if my folks weren't the ones making the "final" decision. I'm going to have to talk to them about that. If not, I could say I had a TTE lip that ripped off jk

Glad it didn't hit my grille ... but kinda wished it hit my headlights so I could get new ones and ditch that dang condensation. Either way, right now it's a sucky situation having to drive around like this when I'm so **** about every little thing on my car.

Thanks for the comments guys and I really hope everything ends up getting fixed soon and I'm also glad that the little incident didn't turn into something worse.

Wow, you can really see the point of impact.

Sorry to hear about the bad luck.

Hopefully the insurance will take care of everything and bless you with some new goodies.
