i was at a 4 way stop sign, so it was my turn to go. i went ahead, and all of the sudden this dude in a F150 on my right pulled out from his stop and ended up hitting his front drivers side wheel. it wasnt hard or anything, something on the truck hooked onto my bumper and ripped it off. not even a dent on the truck. just a 5" paint scratch which can be easily buffed out.

it wouldnt have been that bad if he continue driving on and tear up my bumper

Damn...sorry to see that happen. I'm glad you weren't hurt. Only cosmetic damage?

that really sucks... I feel your pain. the other day a valet scratched my car as well...

looks solely cosmetic so hopefully it won't affect your cars performance when you get it fixed nor the resale value (hopefully won't show up on carfax!)

yea, it sucks. just when i'm about to part the car, convert it back to stock and trade it in, and this happened. damage is just the bumper, since it was ripped off instead on being pushed against the car. not even a dent on the frame.

I agree. At least it's just the bumper. That is an easy replacement.

If i read this correctly, you said you were going back to stock? Are you looking to sell your wheels, if so how much? and whats the name and wheel type etc?
