Default I would use insurance: xenon headlights are 1200 a piece, front bumper is around 400 if I recall..

That's 2800, then you'll need paiting/sanding etc for the bumper.

Then we haven't talked about the suspension (which I don't think will have a problem, since you merely 'landed' on it in the intended axis of motion).

My guess is around 3500, that is if nothing else is kaput (FMIC, Undercover etc.)

Default could someone else that responsible with the highway cover it?

I heard if potholes damaged your rims, sometime the government will pay the damages.

Sorry to see that...

btw, r you not using the GruppeM anymore?

Default that's only if it were due to road negligence, but it's from "natural" disaster...

I'm still using the GruppeM, but I had hoses routed from the front into the GruppeM opening, as well as I have a lower heat shield under the GruppeM. BUT, seems like I'll be getting rid of it soon.

Default Ya, the internals are still okay, cause they were still working...

the lenses are shot tho. I need to take a closer look tomorrow.

Well, guess I may not go to the SF Auto show.
