I got rear ended by a truck. So it was the top of the bumper that got pushed into the rear spoiler, which got pushed into the rear trunk and bent the trunk slightly. I have removed my bumper in the past when I installed my exhaust so I know nothing got damaged except the spoiler frame and trunk and bumper.

Glad to hear that you are OK, but do get the car checked out.. last year some f@#@#r whacked my rear bumper while parked at the airport,, do you think the guilty party left their details.. oh no ! do you think the airport parking would provide the video, only to the police.. do you think the police were interested.. oh no.. (despite leaving the scene of an accident a criminal offence)..

the nudge on the bumper, pushed the metal strip at the top of the bumper into the spoiler, so when the spoler raised and lowered it was catching and scraping the spoiler..

all fixed, but out of my pocket
