Angry Well, my car is damaged again!!

I was stopped in a turining lane making a right turn with traffic....There are two for right turns at this intersection and we all were held up by the res light at the next intersection. Well some dude was in the right turning lane to my left and clipped my front fender and bumper.

WILL THE PAIN EVER END!!!!!!

good excuse to get a new front bumper and then since the rest doesnt match with your front bumper, the rest of the body kit

i hope you got his info so he'll pay up. that can really make a day head south.
sorry to hear. but i always try to look on the brighter side, maybe you can do
a whole new front or maybe it''ll pay for some xpel or something.
keep your chin up. modding is a great way to get better when your feelin' down !!

Well, there is a bright side to this. Pep Boys gave me that check for $1500 last Friday for the damage they did to the drivers fender in December. Now, the insurance company will pay for the damaged bumper AND the fender that was damaged more tonight. Now, when I get my car back, I can get the rims, Pilot Sports AND some Tein CS Coilovers once it's out the shop. Plus I get to drive a Jaguar as a rental....not that it's all that, but at least it's not a regular Taurus.

You can't really see just how bad it is, but it's scratched really bad. I just installed those clear side markers and now the one in the pic will have to be replaced.

THE HORROR!!!!!!!
