    That does it. My SuperBumper is now a permanent accessory on the VX.

    Glad it worked out for you. Hope you at least get the other guy's insurance to pay for a mechanic to inspect for any hidden damage.

    Just got a call from her insurance company. At first, I was sort of hostile (I feel bad now) because I thought they were going to pin it on me somehow. Turns out they are going to pay for my repairs. Anyone know where I can find a pristine cladding center rear piece as well as some knobs?

    gunny,

    Call Dane @ Millerstown Auto Parts. (724) 352-3900

    They are located near Pittsburg. Last I heard, the rear end of the Proton was still untouched.

    Here's a thread on getting the knobs:

    In case any of the newer gang is wondering what a Superbumper is, it's the black thing in the receiver. Can absorb up to 20-25 mph impact w/o any damage to car, and especially helpful to prevent or lessen whiplash.
    Plus it's a really handy step.
    Yeah it looks kind of stupid, not as nice as the GoRhino style, but it's saved my VX's backside once so far from a tap in the rear.
