Who in the world would make plastic bumpers for a jeep? 
Oh, you say the stock ones are? Glad you're ok - and glad you "won". It's amazing they even make plastic bumpers for jeeps.

Glad everyone is okay. There do seem to be a rising number of Jeep-car accident reports where the car takes the brunt of the damage. That's a testament to something Chrysler did at least partly right (plus our beloved after-market bumpers and rock rails).

Glad to hear everyone was okay. My wife was in a side impact about 4 months ago and the Jeep held up very well. The drivers side door was smashed and teh rockpanel was smashed in but she came out with just whiplash it could have been worse. The other car was trashed. One note make sure you do your research on diminished value and file a cliam becuase your Jeep will be worth less. I filed a claim for DV and got a 3K+ check. Was able to buy a ton of Jeep parts.

This is what happens when someone goes the wrong way down a one way street and T-bones a JK going 40mph. I flipped at least three times ( about 25-30 feet) before it came to a rest, laying on the drivers side. I apparently got a ton of air according to the witnesses. I had closed my eyes because of all the broken glass. I climbed out of the hole where my hard top used to be. Apparently the roll cage works at high speeds. 
One tiny scratch above my eye but otherwise I'm good. Buckle up folks.
