Well this morning I pulled my mint 87 GN out or the garage and parked it on our side street. I wasn't out there 15 min and my 19 year old son manages to back into it with his lifted truck which is on my insurance also.
I guess it could have been worse. My ex-wife back over my motorcycle 10 years ago. Like mother like son. lol
Even my perfect self has backed into a couple things before so I'm going to try an smile a little bit today.

Any way it looks like I need :

Right Passenger tail light
Right Passanger tail light corner extension
Rear rubber strip across the back bumper
I have a shop that can do the fix looking for some parts if any one has them. Would have to be in good condition to match the car.
Thanks guys. D

Well he's a little old for the orphanage, but you can try...;)
Try Highway Stars...they should have most of those items.
 
with you hadn't posted that, sad to see ANY turbo buick damaged,
I have never seen the attraction for lifted trucks, always thought they made up for
missing equipment in other areas, LOL
good luck in repairs!
 
Take it to the insurance adjuster today. Man I go to bed thinking about it and wake up same thing. I'm GN crazy.
 
Pretty simple fix, and It's obvious your a great Dad! I'm sure your son feels very bad about damaging you car too. This in itself is a lesson for him to be more careful and aware of his surroundings. And you staying cool with what happened, well, this is just that...Cool!

BTW - James (TTAOWNER) will do you right! He's a great guy to deal with and very fast shipping his parts!

Kind words Raymond. Thanks. Whether is be selling,buying or questions, I have to say what a great group of people here on turbo Buicks.
 
And here I thought I was the only one on this forum who breaks things.:rolleyes: You must be related to me somehow.

Yes Sir. Probably why I've been around for so long too. We have had a few misfits here and there. But they get weeded out pretty quickly. Hope your car gets back to 100% soon.
 
Sorry to see that but it happens. I did one better than that.

10 years ago I pulled my corvette in the driveway behind my 68 Barracuda parked in the garage which I never did. Went in the house got a few things walked out to the garage got in the Barracuda, hit the garage door and backed in to my Corvette. Not even 10 minutes went by. I'm 44 years old now and in all those years I have never had an emotion like I did that day. Not sure what you'd even call it but it wasn't good.:eek:
 
You need just a corner piece assuming your spoiler end piece is good then you can bolt spoiler piece to part pictured
