HAHA! Someone backed into the same spot on mine!!!
Barely any damage. There was a small dent on the wheel well edge behind the rear door, a small 1" scratch on the bottom part of the bumper and my 4-5 spokes on my back rim where scratched up.
But yeah this seems commo
Sorry to hear that man. Painful to look at but will be fixed up real soon.
"She forgot to look". Good excuse for a teenage driver lacking driving experience but how do you "forget to look" after driving for light years.
Guess the aging and memory loss come into play.

good luck buddy getting it fixed. Make sure they only use brand new OEM parts. ( I doubt there are any other options anyhow.) Is there any unibody damage?

Thats exactly where I got hit. Looking at these pictures makes me feel better about mine though. I didnt have any damage on the door or the bumper, just in between the two. Mine was a hit and run, so I found the suprise in my own garage when I was showing the car to a friend for the first time.

I would seriously murder the old person right on the spot for that travesty. I mean, they can't have much longer to go. You'd just be doing them a favor....
Then of course, check their wallets for any bonuses for your murder. They might have a few bucks for gas or something.

Less than a week turnaround is going to be pretty damn amazing if they can do that. Judging by the pics, and note I said pics, not visually. I'd probably be putting a new door skin and quarter on it. That would be the quality way to do it, and thats not getting done before the 21st if its done like that. But again, without actually seeing it in person its hard to judge. It's also kinda hard to push insurance jobs aside and throw a buddy in the mix without getting some backlash somewhere. I've seen our guys do some amazing turnarounds, best of luck man.

Thats the way to go. I was trying to have my 68 Camaro done by July 4th, yea, its looking like maybe Dec. 4th. You don't want to rush things, especially with nicer cars. I'm sure it'll look great man. What good is making the show if you're car looks like smashed ***, ya know?
