OH Gsl-se got rear ended!

So i havent posted in awhile and about 2 weeks ago i took the gsl-se on a little trip from my house in hamilton to an hour past indy to pick up some pc parts. I got off at an exit to get some gas and was sitting stoped with a semi in front of me stopped and a semi behind me stopped. Now just to clarify we were all not moving stopped at a light when the light turned green the truck in front takes off and right as im coming off the clutch BAM! the semi behind me rear ended me. Now he says he didnt know i was there and i can under stand that because the rx7 is small but we were stopped for at least 2-3 minutes before the accident.
The good news is that we are all ok (Including the 7 lol) the insurance company is taking care of it. The car did not take any body damage at all which is good but the problem is the car is my daily driver. And now i need to get a set of taillights and a sunrise red rear bumper so if any one knows where i can get those parts i should have the insurance check within the next 2 weeks or so. I have been checking the sale threads regularly and nothing so far. I need to get this thing back on the road asap and i need a set of tails to do so.

A new tail light from Mazdatrix will cost you an arm and a leg. Best to look on Ebay. That's where I got one. Also check the parts forum here.

mine always gets rear ended on the left side.

there is red and yellow transparent tape that will get you back on the road while you wait for a decent e bay price for the tail light assembly.

Black Dragon (in addition to Mazdatrix) with hit you up for a couple of c notes
