Why thank you




Any bets on how long I can make it this time, without being hit?

Default Avoid at all cost...

I stay away from drive-through's for two reasons: 1) high profile vehicles just can't see you and if they back up/etc which eventually will always happen you will get nailed and 2) our beloved window motors..are questionable and continually using them will hasten there down fall...

If I'm going to get anything, I'll park and go in...

Can't really get a good pic of it, but where it was "scuffed" im able to peel the paint. I also couldn't get a pic of the 4 inch crack in the paint.

If you're in Tampa take it to Ferman's body shop on Florida avenue. I had a bumper and new hood painted there on my '08 (along with $8K other crash damage), and their work was exemplary. It's really impossible to tell the car was hit, and I took I took things apart to check even the hidden parts.
