Default PICS: bye-bye 350...for 3-4 weeks anyway

So the other night I was at a gas station waiting to pull into a pump, when a lifted F-250 reversed right into the rear passenger side of my car. His truck was so high, he didn't even see me right behind him. As expected, his truck had no damage, but my rear quarter panel, rear passenger door panel, and bumper all have to be replaced. I will be leaving it with the body shop on Monday and won't get it back until the second week of January according to the body shop! Ofcourse, his insurance is covering everything, so that is the good I'll take from this experience. My car is dirty from rain we had earlier in the week, so it makes the pics look even worse.

daaaaamn that's too bad... I'm sorry to hear that my friend... I hope you are going to get it fixed well.

After it's done. I would say get a nice gift for your car see what next you need to add to it that you wish to get as soon as you could and I think your car will be happy.

It will be good as new when it is done. And I will have a few things waiting for it when I get it back: F-Sport floor mats, Momo shift ****, 4300k HID fogs, 15" Rockford Fosgate Punch sub with 500 watt Punch amp, painted engine cover...

Oh man that sucks!
Woah 3 weeks, that's a long time, don't worry she'll be as good as new.
I'm in somewhat the same situation, except not so many body panels,
I took mine in today to get my bumper resprayed, I know the shop guy so
I asked if he could take the bumper off so I can go about my day.
He said it should be done by today, so I should have it back on today.
He's wetsanding next week, then I'm doing the final polish

Good luck with the repairs. At least insurance is taking care of everything.
