Not quite as bad...........but, I backed the BMW out of it's shed in the dark and got the angle wrong.........too much swing. Checked the sideview mirror to look for the cement pillar at the driveway entrance to square it up and realized that I was way wide of it...........and heading further right.

Hit the brake.........just at the moment the RR bumper hits the old Dodge van (sitting awaiting the junkyard). Of course, the van couldn't care less. The BMW, however, completely destroyed the plastic POS bumper and it wraps all the way around the vehicle.

My sincere condolonces...........my $500. mistake pales in comparison.
