Anyone have a picture of an S4 without its rear bumper cover on?

I'm trying to understand the shape of the unibody where the rear bumper shocks attach to the car.

In my "Awwwww crap! Just got rear ended!" thread, I've posted a picture where the shock mounts to the car and a few people have suggested that it may be bent. I would like to confirm.

I tried to search in a few different threads, but couldn't find anything. Mike Frye recently did a bumper shock replacement on his car and has a picture in his thread, but the angle of the picture doesn't lend to comparison.

Anyone?

Here you go, this 90 has been moved around a few times by the John Deere but is still pretty straight. Let me know if you need specific angles/shots.

That was the first place I went. Either they are removed or his server is down.

Perfect! That's what I thought it looked like. Thanks for confirming!

So when a truck rides on your ***, it will use the bumper shock as a lever to bend the unibody?

Andrew,
If you need a different angle or close-up shot let me know.
