Default Need some CL help

I recently got my rear bumper stolen off my car over night. (I know, its insane and mind blowing to me)

I need to know what I need to buy in order to get things back to how it was. I took some pictures to show what everything looks like.

The only reason I ask, is that the auto repair place wants $1,100 to fix everything, and i know they are over charging me and just replacing parts that I THINK dont need to be replaced. But i thought some people here at CL could give me a 2nd opinion. I really appreciate any help. Thanks everyone!!!!!!


The plastic square holes are broken


The metal bracket is bent, but i can bend it back


The 4 bolts are still connected to the drunk, but whatever was connected to them (i think the bumper) have been broken off

Same as above

Same square holes are broken

What-the-f*&^?

Have you seen any other cars with damage rolling around there? I bet if you called the police and reported it and ask them to cross check it with anyone else that may have had an accident in an IS300 recently you might find your bumper.

Damn that's weird.

I'm w. O.L.T. on this one, if you report it I think there's a good change you'll find your bumper.
