rear ended

Postby dragontr08 » Mon Feb 22, 2010 10:54 pm

i just got rear ended by an old suburban! :x the old lady said her foot got stuck on the gas pedal and the floor mat ( not a Toyota). It made a big damage on my rear bumper, trunk and tail lights. I called her ins. right away but they're close so i'm gonna call them tomorrow morning. I got a police report already. Any other advice? After market parts? :)
