Default Are bumper guards worth it? You decide.

I had a kid who was so busy eating his Taco that he forgot to watch the road ahead rear end me today. He was smart enough to keep quiet when I walked back and told him “I am not happy”. For some reason I did not just take his information, I called the Police. When the Police came I found that the insurance he was trying to give me was bogus. I am not happy about that. I went straight to my paint guy from the accident.
I felt better after talking to him. No sheet metal damage, just gouges in the paint that went to bare metal. He said that he would wet sand and buff my entire car after doing the touch up.
I must say that a 1962 Pontiac Tempest is stronger than a 20?? Mazda. I did not take any pictures of his car, but there was a print and crease at least 2 inches wide where it wrapped around the bumper guard on my car.
