Default boo.... boo

just bought a used s60 2001. for a go between car. really like it but today some senior lady (71) fu@king smoked my back end so looks like i'm getting a new bumper.. question is .

I have 2001 , i would like to replace it with a 2005 because you can paint the whole bumper can this bumper just be plugged in place with no modification...

thank you

a

should be able to, but if she hit you hard there may be damage underneath.

bender thank you,

i really didn't know there was damage, so i let the lady go. i went shopping and tried to open up the trunk and yes the trunk has a hard time shutting. well the body shop said there is some damage . they have to bang a dent out but the bumper itself may need to be replaced... thank you.

where do you live , i from portrichmond ( really a kenzo ) in philly.

haha no way!

I am up in bucks.

I would imagine you will be fine just replacing the damage - but take a look underneath to ensure there is no framing issues.

Well isn't this just a PA party. Border of Bucks/Mont here.

I have nothing else to contribute, just wanted to chime in.

Good luck getting it taken care of. I'm driving my "new" S60 home from the dealership tomorrow and have to take 309... with my luck I'll have someone sideswipe me before I can even get it home.

Greasy - I drive 309 everyday, twice a day (doylestown to the main line and back). Its not fun!

Keep an eye out for me - if you see an S60T5 that looks like it would stab you in a dark alley, thats mine.
