I was hoping I would never have to post about damage to my baby but I guess this stuff happens.
I was backing up out of a very tight parking spot and a HUGE f-350 with a lift and a king ranch grill was directly behind me. I couldn't turn my wheels because there was a concrete wall to my left and a 350z about 4 inches from the right side of my car so I had to get really close to the truck. I knew I was in trouble when I heard a pop.
Low and behold that king ranch grill stuck out further than the width of the truck and it popped a golf ball sized hole in my left tail light. It didn't break bulbs or anything, just the plastic casing.
Any comments on what I should do? Should I replace the whole tail light or can I just replace the casing or what?
For the time being I covered the hole with packaging tape. I'm just thankful it was the tail light and not the actual body of my car.
