Sign said STOP I said NO
 
I swerved to avoid a jackass who cut me off, I regain control of my car just in time....to hit a stop sign.

Ignore the white parts in the pic, that's just the flash. I think I got away ok. While the bumper was not cracked, or dented I still don't think I can save it because the plastic part is scrapped.

Also, nobody stopped, no cops were called so I'm just goint to leave it at that.

I'm so frustrated right now, but at least it's just scrapes, and I totally owned the stop sign. Snapped that hoe clean off it's base. :)

Edit: could a mod change the title to "Sign said STOP I said NO!"

doesn't look that bad, if it wasn't for the dent you could just cover it with some touch up paint

AK370Z 05-12-2010 08:13 PM

So to see this! :(. Hopefully you get that fixed soon.

Sorry to see this, and Hope you get it fixed..

I got my buddy at the dealership getting me the bumper at his cost, he'll give me a call with a quote(unpainted) tomorrow. I'm going to see if it's worth it, I might just get a Nismo bumper!

Diocletian 05-12-2010 10:00 PM

Is there a vendor on here that sells OEM and aftermarket bumpers? I would like to look at some prices and/or styles.

frost 05-12-2010 10:03 PM

Actually looks like you came out quite while for hitting a stop sign.

fairladyZ34 05-12-2010 10:04 PM

Z1 Motorsports sells the Nismo bumpers

How do you snap a stop sign and have that little damage? Amazing!

probably designed that way so if u crash into it you wont get owned like if u hit sayyyy a tree.

kenchan 05-12-2010 10:10 PM

ouch... i suppose you can get a CF fang cover for the bottom and have the remote airbrush guys at the used car lot touch up your top side... if you want to go that route.

personally i'd just order a new bumper and have the fang area unpainted and just install myself.

Another one bites the dust...

Could we get a "damaged Z" forum?

Yeah I could use a quote on a front bumper with Chicane Yellow paint if you can manage that. :) Z1 motorsports doesn't seem to have any front bumpers, just lips. Fifa racing has this Fifa Racing which looks pretty cool, but I can't get it pre-painted from them which is a hassle since the shipping costs would be through the roof anyway.

I'm of course willing to entertain any offer OEM or otherwise. :)

kannibul 05-12-2010 11:13 PM

call it: "Oopzee Zomeone Bazhed ma Zee"

You might want to report the damaged/removed stop sign lest someone blow through the intersection and cause a worse accident. Just a thought.

370zproject 05-13-2010 12:51 AM

im hopeing its ur cammera thats makeing ur car look yellow white,....

Diocletian 05-13-2010 01:23 AM

Yes it is, it's the flash.

fullmonty 05-13-2010 01:47 AM

I think you got pretty lucky

DjSquall 05-13-2010 05:39 AM

AY caramba! Good thing u got away man! The situation blows though.

3SeventyZ 05-13-2010 05:55 AM

Matt 05-13-2010 07:13 AM

I wanna see the stop sign.

Diocletian 05-13-2010 07:53 AM

Funny you should mention that...My co-workers, who were behind me at the time this happened, surprised me with this in my office this morning

Near the base they even spray painted it yellow. Also they attached a banana to it as well, but I ate that.
