Default string of bad luck ** pics **

Well, this happened about 2 months ago…..got hit by a flying piece of metal on the highway.
I’ve already got this fixed (through insurance).

This happened about 3 days after I got my car back from the body shop……thanks to a flying rock.

This happened last night. I have no idea what I ran over. I was driving through the back streets heading home. Luckily, the heavy rain had just stopped and gave me time to change my tire.

Oh well…….it’s only a car, right?

Aww. Sorry that happened to you Kevin.

The rim is fixable and I'm glad it didn't crack.

Hope everything gets worked out.

Yeah, I'll have to take some time off of work to drop the wheel off Monday afternoon. Hopefully, it won't take too long to get it fixed.

No, I haven't gotten the windshield fixed yet. I'm gonna wait a little bit since I'm probably gonna make another claim through the insurance. It's a good thing that I haven't gotten it fixed yet because I got a second chip on the windshield by another rock last week.

I'm praying that's true. Then I can finally get everything taken care of.

Quoted between $150 - $350 depending on severity of damage and type of finish on the rim.
