Hey guys, I hit a cat the other day and, although I feel bad for the cat and its owners, I can't help but be upset about my car. Somehow, it tore off my left fog light as it got propelled into my wheel-well. It also tore off my climate sensor so my car reads 185 degrees now. I know I should take it to the dealership to get the climate sensor and my foglight, but I was wondering if there was anywhere that sells new OEM bumpers or possibly a new OEM AMG body kit. Then I could just have that put on and then Mercedes could deal with the rest. Here are some pics of the damage and just a random shot of my car...

The foglight and temp sensor are probably just pushed in. Remove the belly pan under the engine and take a look, only friction holds the temp sensor in place. Also, if you take requests, please come by and run over my cat.

Holy Sh** dude...

I could not stop laughing at the thought of the cat "threading the needle" through your fog light hole...

I laughed at this for a good 15 minutes, everyone in the house thought I was going nuts.
