Default Rear ended
Just heading home from the International rules game at Subiaco when a guy ran into the back of me
Bumper and tail light damaged
I jumped out the car to see the damage and there's the guy and his wife running around the front of the car to try and make it look like she was the driver.
result............... he failed the breath test
Now I have the inconvenience of losing the car for a couple of days while his insurance repairs it

pretty sure it voids the insurance for his repair but not my repairs.

Anyone know how much a jeep bumper costs ?

yep mine is getting fixed next week

690 ex GST is what the repairer will pay for it, but the whole change over will cost you like $3500..

I paid an Extra $40 and got an ARB rear bar
