Merging on to 494 East from Lyndale ave in heavy traffic. The car two cars ahead of me gets cut off by a lane changer and they slam on their brakes. I was looking over my shoulder to merge and when I looked back I was closing fast. Slammed the brakes and veered right hard but caught the front left corner on the passenger side rear bumper of the car in front of me. I had lots of chips on my front bumper and my headlight were looking bad so I guess I can look at that part as good. I am driving a Neon rental car and that thing is sooooooo slooooooooow.

Damn that sucks, sounds like your car is benefitting from the facelift though! 494 sucks no matter what part your on!
When I was rearended last winter I was stuck with a cavadaver for a rental and it took a week to get my car back just for a rear bumper! Trust me you'll really appreciate your CSVT when you get it back after the neon!

Got it back today. It looks pretty good but they broke the jack stand point cover on my side skirt. I did not notice it until I went to fill up with gas. I will be talking to them tommorow.
