I'm having a bad day!!!

Woke up this morning just to see that my girlfriend's nieghbor backed into the driver's side rear qtr. Nice size dent. He just missed the tail light. There is now a nice gap between the qtr panel and the hatch.

Why can't people just learn how to drive!!! Its not that hard!!!

Like I need this with 18 days to go. WTF!!!

first estimate is $812 and change and the second estimate was $990 and change.


Both bodyshopps said that if it goes to insurance the car will be totaled out.

How many miles are on that thing?

I know early LT1 cars aren't worth much, but to be totaled for less than $1,000 in damage is a bit extreme.

Yeah you have to cut out the rear 1/4's to be replaced.

Sucks tim, hope you got on the horn with insurance and got a police report too.
