What a crappy day...
Stayed home today do some errands and take care of some stuff...
Did my 3000 mile oil change, then backed the car back in the garag...had the hatch open, cleaning the back when all of a sudden this big box (with my not yet installed differential cover) that was on a shelves fell on the side of the car....I FOCKING WANTED TO CRY!!! BIG dent on the right side fender right behind the front wheel
I wanted to kill...was lucky it didn't fall right on the hood!!
I immediately took it to Dent Pro in Campbell. They fixed it and did a hell of a good job!! They also took care of a door ding I had on right rear passenger door. So I feel a bit better now even tho there is still some small scratches, it’s way batter than it was. Fanker is detailing my car Sunday...he might be able to take care of those.

Ya, I know how you feel. I forgot to remove my bikes before pulling into my carport. Doh! I dented the roof pretty bad. I had to take the car to the body shop to get it fixed. I felt pretty damn stupid when I did it.

But when I did it, I only took the saddle and messed up my handle bars. I was lucky it was a full squishy, it compressed when I hit the garage door.but yeah...sux big time! Hope they did a good job on your car?

nothing can grind on you more than dents and dings
I spent all day one Saturday detailing my car (blue 2002 sedan), then applying wax, then final detail spray. I went over every inch of the car.
Later that afternoon, my wife and I went grocery shopping. When approaching the car after finishing shopping, I noticed a 4" soft dent in my trunklid, just next to the LH taillamp assembly. $#%*^&^&%*)(*!!!!**((!!!!!!%%!!
I plan on consulting Dent Wizard....anybody have good luck with these guys?

... you'd be more worried about your bikes than your car (that would be me... but I'd mourn for the car afterwards).
