DANG!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a way to start my V-day.......
Any idea how much it will cost to replace? This puts a dent into my Vegas trip that I was taking next month.
Cliffs
Snowed sunday/monday
Pulling out of the Driveway
Hit snow bank
Do not want to go through insurance since preimum will go up. Plus $500 deductible
I work for a dealership so I hope that I can get a discount through the bodyshop they use.
I found a place online through ebay that will sell me a new bumper and paint it for $400 but idk if i should do it. I dont want it to not match.

I would have never thought that a bumper would crack like that, i have heard of bumpers bending and paint cracking but that's kind of weird... nissan must of started to make these bumpers out of cheap material... I would suggest you plastic welding the pieces of plastic back or other pieces and putty it up have it sanded primed and professionaly painted should run you at about 150.

rock auto. They are pretty good. 5% discount codes can be had pretty easily.
If you work at a dealership, consider using your discount there on the bumper as well. There is significant markup. When I worked at a dealer they offered 25% off parts and 50% off labor. I would imagine it is a similar situation at any halfway decent dealer. Once you combine the basic cost of an aftermarket bumper + shipping you might come close to the same price at the dealer with your discount. The nice thing about a dealer purchase is the warranty that nissan will offer on the part and installation, even with your discount.

That sounds like a good idea cause you never know you might win the jackpot there. If you do win, you'll probably buy a Lambo and all your problems are solved.

Whats the record? I want to unleash the lambo. I already taught my buddy how to launch the 458 Italia (launch control) now we just got to see if the instructor will notice.

The show I watched said the record was 140. I think that's low for these exotics, but maybe the track isn't set up for top speeds?
