I ghetto rigged my tail back together, but not in 100% state.....as far as the dent goes....the clear coat has been scratched and the rear passenger panel has a crease on the edge..therefore even if I pull it out the crease is going to be there with chipped paint and rust build-up is likely....
Solution: shaking my head.....trying to piece together my car again and saving money is not worth more pain and money to come because I was stupid and try to fix it myself. So with that in mind I ended up having to go to the autobody shops... Yes Remy it was quoted $1600 for the car to be fixed.... From my pocket $240 with the help of insurance.....plus any addition fees towards renting a car if over $1000...... In conclusion and I made my decision......I'll show up banged up because people are backing out due to minor dents....come on.....I'm showing up practically with the whole car falling apart....lol...j/k... But it is not pretty.... --------------------  |

But it is not pretty.... They way you explain the damage it kinda reminds me of mines only with no tail light damage, I decided not to spend the 1500 to get mines fixed I rather learn, the experience would be better for me too lol and yes the bare metal chip is rusting on my car already only took a week so either get it fixed fast or watch your car slowly rust away...lol j/k -------------------- "To Protect And To Serve The Wealthy" -POLICE

By the way, is anyone interested in a 2.5" magnaflow muffler? It was used for about 3 months before I went to a 3" one. Give me an offer and let me know by 10am tomorrow so I can bring it along.

I hate to continue the chain of mishaps with cars being busted up with stupid mistakes, but I swear I'll kill the next guy/girl that bumps into my car when its in a lot. I went to see the movie 21 tonight and I come out and look at my rear bumper and you can see the fiberglass webbing out after someone pushed into it! Ugh it pisses me off!!! still looks clean tho
 I don't think many people who said they were going have been paying attention to the thread, so they might still think it's 4:30 from before! -------------------- -Tyler
