S2000 crash :(
S2000 crash :(
Went in backwards and front slid round into another lamppost. The damage, I hope, is mainly cosmetic. I need one new alloy though and possibly a new rear bumber. I'm getting it looked at by a garage who can hopefully sort it out.
Anyone know any good places for S2000 parts?

Damage to the rear bumper. You can see a vaguely lighter patch on it. That's where I hit a small lamp post, which actually fell over, taking some more energy out of the collision thankfully.

The only crack of all the damage done is the rear bumper number plate holder, which does seem to be detachable from the rest of it

As the rear end slid along the falling lamppost I think it must have caught the right exhaust, as this is now what it looks like :/

And because that is bent it has pinged off the right hand side of the bumper and I cant pop it back on

Hitting the lamppost with the back end made the car swing around and the front end hit a rather more solid lamppost and did this to the front panel
