Default car got hit today

Today at work some ******* backed into my damn car and messed up the back end. Busted out the blinker and that whole thing, scratched the bumper and just screwed everything. My question is where can I buy a new or used replacement for the back left blinker, that whole thing comes out right???

I'm not sure if they'll have it, but try manuels used auto parts on specer. I can't recall if they had the rear parts on the f-bodies out there, but it doesn't hurt to look. They have like 7 f-bodies so they may have it

Why doesn't the ******* who backed into you pay for your car to get fixed at a shop or dealership?

I just saw a complete rear bumper, tail panel and rear hatch at the swap meet in Conroe last weekend, so they're out there. I'd try and get the person who backed into you to pay for it first, but if that falls through, a junkyard and a good paintshop would be two good places to start.

I would get the guy who back up into your car to pay it. Well, his insurance of course. Unless this SOB doesn't have any.

I have a complete left tail light assembly. It had a crack internally somewhere and allowed moisture to get in it. It works, no cracks, but it's a little "dimmer" than the other side. I think the moisture caused some mold or crud to form on the inside. I bought a new one.

Anyway, if you want it, it's yours. Just let me know. It's been sitting in my garage for two years!! Plus, I have the center panel, too.
