Yeah tell me about it............................................ I parked behind her because I have a 6 year old brother who plays in the mud and throws it all over the place in the other parking spot which is why I had to wash it yesterday. I figured I'd rather not have mud all over my car so I parked behind her... I'd settle for mud anytime over this.

I think he was just talking about the front bumper. I really dont like chrome anywhere else except the rims :P
The final results of the damage are 2 dents, the rest is covered up by my touchup paint and hardly noticable. My mom said to go get estimates to get it fix and I told her it's probably going to cost more to get it fixed than it would to just buy a new bumper so she said she'll buy me a new bumper and for me to pick one out -- she said to get a cool one, I'm assuming like a GT/CS or something. I told her I didn't want a new one and I could live with it the way it is... then my dad came home and said get a new bumper. It's a nice car and it should say that way...
So apparently I'll be getting a new bumper but I dont know if I want one or not... moving to an apartment end of the summer and their helping me out with the apartment so I really dont want to bother them with other costs too... ahh

what about a GT take-off. If you don't want the fog lights you can just go with the GT take-off bumper, but you'll have to find a GT grille to go with it, because the V6 and GT grilles are a different size.
My guess would be that the cost of a new V6 bumper painted and installed is going to cost more than the GT take off that's already painted and ready to install. And, a GT front bumper gives you a lot more choice for chin spoilers if you wanted to go that root in the future.
P.S. - If anyone wants to accuse me of being "rice" because I've got chrome trim around my grille, well, I guess McQueen was "rice" too, so I guess I can live with that.

I dont think your rice at all heh.
I was planning on getting the GT front I just hate how much that stinkin grill costs on most websites... like $100 for the grill + shipping. I'm just going to wait until something good pops up on ebay or somewhere else.
