Sorry about the hit man -- sucks I know.
My 242 got hit back in Feb. 2002 in Knoxville, TN with almost identical damage to yours. Hit started closer to the wheel so it pushed the fender into the tire and then bounced off before it took out the tail light. However, it ripped my commando bumper off the strut (just like your pic) and jackknifed the passenger side of the bumper into that rear fender also torquing/tearing the unibody pieces underneath that held the passenger side strut. 2 ruined rear qtrs without touching the tail lights, deck lid or rear valance.
How did your accident occur? The truck that hit me was coming towards me in the other lane when he got rear ended and lost control side swiping me as he moved by. His damage was to his driver's side front.
