Default Rear end collision on the trails...

Yep...It was a slight downhill and sorta icy (didn't help that it was dark out too.) I dunno what exactly occurred but as soon I realized my buddies Jeep wasn't slowing down it was too late. His jeep was stock so my rear bumper went right over his into his grill... whole front clip was busted into hundreds of pieces, pass. fender got folded back a bit trans cooler ripped open, radiator ripped open and pushed back causing a bent mechanical fan and broken power steering pulley. I've got a pretty heavy duty rear bumper I made so the only damage I got was a few pieces broken off my taillight housing. So now I'm gonna try and help him get it out of the woods... This is the only decent pic I have of his, it was after we cleaned up all the bits of plastic and glass.

Makes me sad that my XJ did this to another XJ
