Default Sad.

Man I am sooo freakin upset! I backed into my stairs at my house and did a number on my passenger side door along with the rear quarter panel. BUT there is a good thing out of all of this and thats that I am having it all re-done so she will look as good as new. Pics are posted in my photo gallery of the work being done. Take a look when you get the chance. Seeing my car like this makes me want to cry.

And I thought I had it bad last night dreaming I was moving cars in my driveway and crushed the driver's side door on my Monte with the wife's Mustang by accident (I was glad that was just a dream, but still, has had my on alert since then).....

I feel your pain. Years ago, I backed my Camaro into a guide wire to a telephone pole (didn't see it at all in my rear view). Damaged the spoiler and bumper (replaced the spoiler, repainted the corner of the bumper myself from a can). All turned out OK (still not the same).

Glad yours is going to be fixed!

Well I claimed it on my isurance so its gonna be fixed plus I paid a little out of pocket to get some of the little dings and dents repaired so she will look as good as new. Found this out the other day and thats that when they removed both rocker panels they broke em!!! They had to take the hit and replace them which cost almost a thousand a peice!! Ouch!!! I went in and took a look at my car this morning and she was going in to the paint shop so I will have her back by next week I hope but the guy thats doin all the work says that my Monte will be like new cause the whole car is gonna be pretty much repainted. So something bad is gonna be turning out pretty new. I am happy as hell. The place thats doin all the work? Raymond Auto Body here in Saint Paul. One of the best. After all this it has been a learning curve for me and thats that WATCH WHERE THE HELL I AM GOING!!! LOL People thought I was **** when it came to my Monte before havent seen anything yet!!!
