Yeah Fernando I cried like a baby that day. :puppydogeyes:

I was so upset with myself. :evil:

The hard part was dodgeing hwy traffic collecting shattered pieces of my front end. Its done and now Im doing some city photoshots of her. My dad borrowed my cam last week and just got it back. So maybe sometime next week I should have some pics up.

Welcome to SG, and at 130k miles...its defiantly worth fixing. Its still getting broke in, my 1MZ has 153k and it runs better than the day it was new. All that aside, that bumper...I bet you could go to a junkyard and find a rear bumper for a 100 bucks in good shape, then have it painted. Wouldn't be more than 500 total.

^^^O Hell Yeah!
I bought my front bumber brand new for $200 shipped. Had it painted for around $180. Your gonna spend around the same because of the work they are gonna have to do to the junk yard bumper to prep it for paint.

blahh.. so today i got realll happy cause i found out i was getting 500 bucks for my taxes and figured yay everything is going as planned.. today, i hit a pothole about 1ft deep and like 1ft long. =[ i pulled into a parking lot and i see a flat tire. yay. then i remember yay MY JACK IS JAMMED INTO MY TRUNK cause of accident. i hop into my trunk and pull with all my might (im little.. 135 lbs..) couldnt do it. i told my gf to call her dad to bring a jack or tools. he broke his original jack and had this hydraulic one for his trailblazer. guess what it was too big for the avalon. we sit there redneck as hell trying to lift the car up ourselves to get the jack under but no luck. he gets a pry bar and puts it in the jack and we finally got it out. we lift the car up and finally get everything out and we look at the rim and its bent to HELL (pics tomorrow after school) so i guess im back on a spare and need new rims.

Thanks for most of the comments on the engine.. that my friends is off a "engine pwerwash" and it made it sparklyy. yup its a 1mz and a mcv20 or x or w/e chassis
