I wish, I had a local shop make it up. I bought a OEM one but spreading the clip apart wasnt going to happen easy to get it to slide in.

Ive been thinking of getting a welder to do small projects and such.

The shop (same guy to) is working on making me a Aluminum Window Guard/Rails Rack

If you attempt to repair the damage on your own, you will own the entire problem - your insurance won't touch it (they may even re-evaluate having you as a customer), and your neighbor can tell you to go fly a kite when you ask for some help in fixing what he caused. Follow the proper route or you'll be the only one losing money big time.

Well I did some shopping and found some good deals and ordered the parts today with cash in hand. Luckily it was one of my best friends so I knew he was good to pay for it. He was actually driving his uncles truck when he hit my truck so we both didnt want to get into that sticky situation. Bent the steel "wing" behind the bumper back without any problems. She is gunna look brand new pretty soon and I wont be so ashamed to drive her any more haha
