Thumbs up Damaged bumper

My bumper got scratched up and scuffed up yesturday.

Details are here.

https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=353547

No one claimed to do the parking lot damage so I'm SOL and will have to pay for it myself if I choose to fix it.

I am considering superfunguy's suggestion. Maybe this is the opportunity to get the 04 front end. Anyone local interested salvaging my AP1 front bumper? it has the OEM lip. Would be willing to part out the lip. Lip is in great condition, like new.

The bumper isn't cracked. I'm stilling thinking about what to do.

I'm not sure what to do yet. If I can find a good shop that can do the work, I might stick with my AP1 bumper. The reason I am offering my AP1 front with OEM lip is the lip is already painted and there are many Berlina Owners here that might want one. This way I can at least salvage it and get some money towards a new bumper.

Any suggestions on how I can best handle this situation is appreciated.

Thanks!

I need to see better pictures. The only thing that picture shows is that you own a black S2000.

Happened in the parking lot at work when I wasn't around. Car was washed during lunch break and did not see any damages. So I know it happened after lunch. Leaving work and approaching my car I noticed the damages.

This is not intended in a bad way, but that's not the sort of information I feel like sharing on the forum.

Why do you ask?

I don't mind discussing it at one of our meets though.
Hope you understand.

ehhh it does sound that way. I suppose it isn't something big. I'm not secretive, nothing to hide. I've shared this information to others over PMs. I just don't want my car jacked because I let everyone know where I park it during working hours.
That's cool. If someone's car gets messed with I'm kind of interested as to where it happened. It's not like your car was intentionally vandalized, well I guess it could have been, but say for example if cars are getting broken into/vandalized at Tuttle mall then I'm going to be paranoid about going there. I've been going to several car forums for central Ohio and I like to keep an eye open for problem areas.

Now I know that anyone's car can get messed with anywhere you go, but it's just something I keep a watch for. Maybe I'm wasting my time but whatever, it helps me sleep at night.

Oh, I'm not planning on jacking your car, I already have one.
