so my laurel blue 89 was in the shop for its oil leak well they wanted like 1300 to fix them, yes them there were 4 leaks, valve cover gasket, dizzy seal, oil filter mounting gasket, and the rear main seal. so i broke it down from worst to least and only fixed the worst, lucky the remain seal was small and not as important as the dizzy seal and valve cover, well they wanted like 600 to do the 2 and i was like how much for the valve cover, 190 is what they said , i was no ill go buy the 10 buck part and do it myself, so i got the repairs down to 320 and they also fixed the heater witch wasent working due to a missing clip on the control cable , well we go that done and it fixed most of my smoking prob i had now it only does it like once every half hour instead of it being constint lol,

well anywas today my girlfriend is taking her kid to school and some one backed into the right side rear corner, she said it was jsut the light and dident notice the large dent on the rear quarter panel and good thing we have insurance and so did the lady lol any was heres a pic

That does look a little faded to me too. My car always looks real blue on camera, yours looks almost greyish blue. Please dont pay $190 to fix the valve cover leak, that is one of the easiest things to fix on the car. I did it in 10 minutes tops.

Yeah Virginia is not as bad as the Northeastern states. I love the 4 seasons we have, because I like change. Fall and Spring are beautiful here. Winter is not that bad, the lowest it gets here is maybe below 10, never below 0. And snow is something you guys dont get. Thats a good and a bad thing lol.
