I did something similar when my S10 was rear-ended by a Karen at a clear red light. Got insurance payout for a new bumper for about a g, bought replacement brackets for about 40 bucks.This thread is funny. I’ve been through 2 of these stock Sport bumpers. They are disposable. I Just put the word out and got free replacement from a forum member.
My insurance company gave me $400 the first time which i used for other mods.
