Unhappy Feel sick hit my new 03 c4s

I got my new 2003 C4S a few weeks ago and love it best 996 I've ever had.
But last weekend I was in a parking lot with new two foot high bollards ( they had just put them in )and since I couldn't see the one behind me I reversed back into one I felt sick. I was very impressed with the was the bumper collapsed however I now need a new rear bumper and passenger tail light dose anyone know how much this should cost <img border="0" alt="[crying]" title="" src="graemlins/crying.gif" />

Atleast now you can have those dumb black bumperettes removed. Just have the body shop fill the holes.

Thanks for the advice I too dont like the bumperettes good idea!!! My last 996 a cab had them painted the same color as the car.
But I agree with you none would look great.
Looks like I hit it in just the right place ( if you can ever say that) only cosmetic damage.
Now just a matter of availability of parts

Sorry to hear about this John -- I am sure little compares to the pain felt when your brand new car gets "spanked" a little.

I hope you are able to get the replacements parts quickly, and the damage is "undone."

Regards.
