i just pulled my baby into a pole pulling into my parking spot. i am really frustrated and just moved to so cal so dont know any good body shops. i live in cypress but im willing to drive if its a good shop that can do the right work. what else is there to put on there instead of a new stock bumper

I live close by, but I only know of 1 shop in Long Beach but I don't think they are that cheap. I'll have to find some info if you want.
What color is your truck? Theres a few guys here that have taken off the front bumper for an after-market one. Might be able to pick one up used and cheap. THen you won't need the bodyshop, depending on how much damage you did.

This was a few years back but my son took his week old S10 to Caliber Collision in La Habra, California. Hit and run on the freeway, almost 14 grand in damage. They did a fantastic job, my son was working for Lexus at the time and put it on the rack at work when he got it back and he said it looked as good underneath as the body work did. Even years later you could not tell it was wrecked.
