Stupid....stupid....animal...oh well....
Does anyone have a factory Milano RED front bumper from a 92-95 Civic HBfor sale? Would rather have red, but other colours are excepted.........AS LONG AS THE BUMPER IS FACTORY AND UN-CUT/UN-MODDED.
All the holes in the front bumper must be intact.....ie....no mesh grill or driving lights.
Don't bother asking what happen.
PM me......or if you have my cell #,
Thanks.

Racoon.....and he wasn't a small one either. I was heading back from Bradford on friday night/sat morning. I was doing about 80 km (some traffic)........when out of nowhere, I see this. 
Never had a chance to swerve out of the way. And to top it all all, the stupid thing still got up and took off. (I could see it in my rearveiw). Thank god I didn't lower my car.....there would have been more damage.
The funny thing is that the Grillcraft grill took a good portion of the impact along with my front lip. Both those things are untouched, but the bumber between those to peices.....well.....I was kinda able to fix it....kinda. You can see the wobbles under the pretty paint job I did. Oh well.....I'll just put a little sticker over the dammage that says....."Stupid Racoon", with an arrow pointing to the damange.
I'll leave it for now.....I don't want to spend any $$'s. I can live with the eye sore.
If I had a fiberglass lip, or one of those blue plastic lips, it would of been toast. This is why you buy URETHANE.
It takes a lickin'.
(twice now, and still in one peice.)

Sorry to hear about the bumper... maybe you should be driving a lifted Jeep!
