If you're looking to drop a buck there are always the Group Harrington stainless steel bumpers, they're $1200 a set (plus shipping, eek), but I've heard nothing but good things about them. Stainless will outlast chromed steel any day.

Since your car is a classic take it to a good restoration shop they will find all the parts to make the repairs. Don't let the insurance tell you, you can't they will try, but you have the right to have it repaired correctly.

Too late. He took a payoff from the other party to avoid filing the insurance.

That was a dumb move. Well that normally will bite you in the arse, so lesson learned.

You can't really say it's dumb with the information given. Anyone who's dealt with insurance companies knows that there are multiple ways to get screwed over and if the situation is not clear you can get in to an extended frustrating battle to get things right. It might be obvious to the two parties who's fault it was, but if siteunseen had his nose over the white line or it was dusk and his lights were off or etc. the insurance company could make life difficult. Besides that, maybe he was just being a nice guy.

Many would also argue that 1977 is not a classic. But that's in the mind of the beholder anyway, in all cases.

Forgot to say that, apparently, those rubber pieces are available from Courtesy Nissan. $84.67.

Thank You.

Yes you can be a nice guy and get screwed. Happens all the time.

Look at my car in the 1st post. It's not hurt, I'm not hurt. Nobody's screwing me over. Live and let live.

Those darned younger guys. I think we should get rid of the lot of them. And their Hondas.

Not all of the younger drivers are bad, but i don't drive a honda.

i don't drive a honda.

Hehe. I do.

But I'm not young... :paranoid:

seems to me i've heard of people getting hit by others and having their own insurance rate go up. Heard that from a couple people.

I have seen alot of them floating around on craigslist, not sure where you are but nashville and atlanta craigslist are pretty good for z parts.
