So like many other eg owners, after 285,000kms, my bumpers were about an inch below my fenders. I followed a couple diys out there, which said to get a bolt, nut, and two washers to hold them up. Much better than plastic oem crap, or so i thought. When you get rear ended and your rusty fenders dont break on both sides, the metal under your side rear window might bend. Last pic is my buddy who hit me, I dont blame him I slowed down for car and he hydroplaned.

EDIT: people have informed me that the side damage that i circled was probably from frame damage, my bad. but if you look where the bumper connects to the fender it is bent, so if this was a less serious accident, that small corner probably still would have bent, increasing the repair bill.
