Thanks for all the suggestions everyone. After some searching and not finding any brackets I had decided to make my own. Starting with a 3D print then looking for someone to cut me out the brackets but I think I found a better option.
Ended up going with the C1R + Brake Hitch Mount light from...
Thanks for the reply. I thought about removing the hooks, but I kind of like them. There are brackets that could work, so maybe if I get desperate enough I might try that. I do not want to remove the bumper again if I can help it, it was kind of a pain to install.
I am looking for ideas and suggestions for adding backup lights to my rear Metalcloak bumper. I recently had to replace my stock steel bumper due to a lady backing into me in a parking lot. I went with the Metalcloak bumper to match my front bumper I put on a few years ago. I had installed...
Thanks for reminding me about this. Both insurance companies went to arbitration and it was decided that each would pay their own. So I am screwed out of my deductible and have a wreck on my insurance now. Not much I can do about it at this point but move on.
If you don't have a dash-cam...
Wanted to throw an update out there.
Got the Jeep back today from the body shop. All is well I guess. An additional ~$750 was added to the repair for other stuff that they found out it needed after the initial inspection. I'll see if I can scan it and post it up for all that want to know...
As I'm going through a similar issue I would very much suggest you get your insurance involved asap. They will handle all issues with the other party and their insurance. Make your intentions known you want diminished value so they know up front. If you want a link to a place that can get that...
Thanks, I actually thought of this one I replied to you yesterday. My insurance company told me to wait till the repairs are completed, before asking for values. This way they can be more complete. It's looking like it's going to be a while before any of this is resolved through the insurance...
HA so I asked the body shop to replace my "steel" bumper, they told me it wasn't available and they couldn't get any of the steel bumper parts. I really wanted to have it back ....
Nope too late, I already printed this off and gave it to my lawyer.... j/k
Yeah I plan on asking them to get me the money. I hope they do, cause I really don't want to get lawyers involved. If you have any recommendations on some place to calculate loss I am open to suggestions. Thanks!
So here is an update to the accident. From what my insurance is saying the police report says the accident occurred because the other party ran the red light. So that is some good news, now I hope her insurance actually pays and I can get some reimbursement on my deductible and possible loss...
Got the quote on Friday, $6k to fix initially. I'm sure it will be more once it's done. My main issue for the repair is the frame has to be moved back into place where the bumper attaches and the hood panel gaps are all off. I'm sure they will do a good job, but you never know what could come up...
1st post for me here on this forum. I hate to show this to everyone but she went a total of 340 miles before someone ran a red light and hit me. Good news is that both parties were fine. The lady who hit me all her air bags deployed and mine looks to be some possible major damage to the...
