Wtf!!!!!
Yup, That's me! Still have No problem finding her. Lol and you are right, if I ever get hit the first question out of my mouth will be: "You mean you Didn't see the Big Yellow Banana with Fog lights coming you the Road?" She does have a habit of catching the eye!
Work in progress. Looking at 2 weeks for a Big Blue resurrection. Hopefully sooner because I miss my ish already. I'm driving a rental Chrysler 200. So not the same experience

As long as you don't go through what I went through, you're doing fine. I woulda gladly taken two weeks without my Monte vs what felt like all summer.
Best of luck. Work looks like it's moving along

Been offline for a few weeks because I've been busy but I also have been waiting for a "Big Blue" return and last Wednesday I picked it up from the body shop after 15 days. Car looks almost back to normal but there are little things that I notice that are slowly annoying me to the point where I might have to go back to the shop. The Neanderthals that worked on it looked like they used a crowbar to pry the rocker-panel off because the top part of it toward the rear wheel under the "SS" badge is dented in where every clip probably was located. The driver door closes fine but the bottom sticks out slightly and the window line is off a bit from the rear window. I was wiping excess dust and everything they used to repair the driver door out of the door jam and the bottom part of the door where the damage was had some paint rub off on the rolled seam and on the inside. But besides that stuff, overall it's together. I'm going to have to get it detailed as well because the new quarter-panel and the driver door got mad swirls in it from the body shop "detailer". The dudes I work with will do a much better job.

I feel your pain on looking at a job not done right man. I got so sick of going back and forth with the body shop, I called my agent and said "I need to take this somewhere else". The 2nd place did a great job, wish I called them first!
This is my worst fear for red. Iv been rear ended twice (once in my old saturn and once in my moms brand new nissan) both times got screwed over by un-insured drivers. Didn't care in my car but in my moms it was two weeks before boot camp and I didn't have time to file a civil suit for fear of not getting to go to bmt. Also been hut and run side swiped in my saturn twice but it was ugly when I got it. How did they replace that quarter panel? I always thought I would be pretty screwed if I took a hit their. Hope all turns out well for you and yes sue the parents so maybe they learn to punish their kids. I know I would have gotten my *** whooped and so much more for doing soemthing like that.
