Did that big lady hit you? I guess she didn't turn around to look?!?!?
Yesterday, some dude in a loaner TSX almost did the same this to me...flew out of the spot in reverse. I laid on the horn for a good ten seconds...he was like "sorry, it's a loaner"
I dunno if he meant "sorry, i don't give a **** about this car" or "sorry, i'm not used to the dimensions of this automobile, so I thought it would be perfectly acceptable to not look and hammer the throttle in reverse to leave my parking spot"
Either way, he's an asshat

its all easily replaceable stuff (altho stupid expensive). the door and hood have to be painted to blend correctly. i havent heard an ETA from al, but my guess is next friday at the latest. as far as i know he started work no it yesterday.

that car is just too small for that lady. there's not enough room in it for her to turn around to look.
anyway... why does the door and hood need to be painted? they weren't even touched.
i thought if the paint was matched well enough, you wouldn't need to blend.

Great bodyshops/painters would rather blend than just spray the component that needs paint. It is annoying, but then again mixing paint, especially metallics, can be tough to match 100%. like i mentioned before, I am having some paint work done, and they wanted the whole car. I am taking my chances with having them mix and spray the pieces individually. Blending allows the painter to flow the color better and not leave the newly painted area so obvious.

hey at least your hood will be fixed!
Phil didn't touch my bumper or hood, but he got the paint perfect so i can't complain.
