Reply With Quotethat sux.. could be worse tho.. at least u hit him square on. with that kind of impact u are less likely to have frame damage which would alter the suspension geometry
hope u don't have to spend too much to fix it up

I think you picked the wrong user name to own an E34.
Good luck on the repairs though

why did u pump the brakes?
no ABS?

Well I didn't pump...per se. I wasn't sliding skidding or anything, I just couldn't stop in time. I was just in the ON SNAP its not stopping fast enough mode, so I let the pedal up and hit them down again. It happened so fast its a little fuzzy in my head. The road was wet.

that's not that bad as it looks. probably no frame damage.. it seams to me that u went "under" the guy in front of you ,resulting in an impact over the bumper, mostly hood and fenders. go to the breakers, get the parts, if you are lucky and find the right colour body panels it's a driveway job as winfred sayd. if not, a good paint shop can colour match everything but it's gonna cost more.
look at the bright side. if you hit him harder and anly with a corner of the car you could have been looking at frame damage+major cash.
good luck with the fix, and drive slower in the wet...
