Should have filmed it for the next Fix-Auto tv comercial
I caught the cement protection barrier of a telephone pole that wasn't visible from inside the car while turning to go past it. Did a job on the rear quarter panel luckily I was in the Rabbit. Many expletives were heard.

Looks like it has already been swapped once... That's a 996 bumper
If you've got a truck or other transportation, you can save $$ by pulling the bumper off yourself and taking it to the shop. This will also give you the opportunity to clean those radiators!

Aren't you the observant one?!
A PO must've had an unreported accident. The bumper, and I suspect the hood were changed and the headlights are clean as a whistle!
I 've had that bumper off to make the centre cutout that they had neglected to do. Rads were pretty clean.
