Default Had a bad day

Well, I was in ATL today for a meeting, and was on my way back when a truck slung some road debris my way. Didn't feel like much at the time, so I didn't get the trucks number or pull over and inspect. Stopped at a gas station 30 minutes later, and passenger side of my bumper that is visible beyond the brush guard is destroyed. Fog light is shot. I'm guessing the entire bumper is going to have to be replaced. It's dark now, but I'll post up some pics tomorrow of the carnage. My insurance deductible is $1k, so I might just go ahead and pony up for an ARB or some such.

Ok, follow the link for pics of the damage. I-75 damage

Ok, for those of you that have me as a friend on Facebook, I have posted some pics there. Did a mobile upload, since I'm not at home right now, but I'll post more on here later.
