First being this is my first post here. Allow me to introduce myself in advance and why I need this information. 3 years ago I was involved in an accident with my 00 toyota Celica GT. I was put into the situation where I was guarenteed at fault of rear ending some one in a toyota camry. At the point of impact I had to have been going under 10mph as the only damage sustained on my car was that the Very front where the Toyota emblem is the points that stick farthest out on the car suffered a few paint scrapes. The bumper did not crack bend anything simply paint scrapes. I have photos they just aren't in digital form so I can upload them after work for inquiring minds regarding the extent or should I say lack of damage that was caused.
What I'm looking for is technical Data put out by the manufacturer regarding the crash test ratings of the bumper its self. The reason I need this as I've been involved in an ongoing law suit in reagrds to myself causing lifetime injury and agony. Now I know that I could have ran up and kicked the car harder and caused more damage as the camry lower rear plastic bumper recieved nothing but my paint that scratched off onto her car. I need physical evidence and proof if any one has this saved in a .PDF or a link to where I can print something out. As well is if the moderators of this board feel that this best posted in another section please feel free to move it in hopes of recieving some help in my situation.
I've moved on from the Celica and stepped it up for something new. Pics for clicks of the new ride. 276whp/338wtq :wiggle:

Well it's kinda sad to hear that from you. Anyways, I am intrigued about the bumper you told us earlier. I quite understand why it didn't cause a crack but I'm just wondering how come the bumper didn't even bend?
