    Was driving home yesterday in a hard rain on the interstate when hydroplaned and hit the guard rail. Luckily no one else was involved in the accident or anyone injured. Was able to get the truck slowed down before striking the guard rail with the front end. The damage is left front fender, bumper, left front headlight, aluminum bumper support, grill and fog light. My insurance guy is coming tomorrow to do the estimate. The frame rails do not looked tweaked, only issue with them is where the aluminum support bolts up the right side bent inward from the impact. My plan depending on what they do is to put an ARB on instead of the stock bumper. Anyone had similar damage and installed a plate bumper afterwards. For my suspension I have 5100s set at 1.75. I don't plan to install a winch right now just get the truck fixed and ready to go and winch when able to do so.

    Thanks
    Matt
