So, unfortunately... the unthinkable happened.
First real day taking the wagon out after getting the new shoes on and someone who wasn't paying attention rear ended me.
The damage isn't nearly as bad as the pain in my neck would suggest, just a dented bumper and dented rear trunk gate. However, it looks like they're both damaged beyond repair.
I'm able to find replacement rear bumpers just fine, but I'm having some difficulty finding the trunk, as it has to be wagon-specific.
Anyone out there give me some hints as to where I can find a replacement trunk?

Finding a tailgate as close as possible would be your best choice. Shipping one could be a killer...or take a road trip. http://www.car-part.com/
After you replace your rear bumper and tailgate, another small bit of advice, add a 3rd brake light. With the taillights being low down, idiots behind you that insist on tailgating won't see them when they come on. That's besides the distracted drivers out there texting, etc.

I have a tailgate off my old 79 Malibu wagon in Iowa.
