    Car got hit tonight. :(

    Heres a repost from my thread:

    Well i have some bad news. As odd as it is I was hanging out with my ex and her husband backed out of their driveway, and turned not noticing my car was there 0.0, and clipped my front door a little, rear door, and rear lower quarter. Ripped a piece of molding off and i think dented it in pretty good. So we didnt want to fool with the insurance companies yet cause they already have a lot on their plate and im a nice guy. Im gonna go get quotes tomorrow from some body shops and see what I can do about the damage. If we can take care of it that way ill be happy, but if its too much for em to handle i guess well have to turn it in to insurance. I know the body shops cant color match paint to a 20 year+ car so, im guessing rear door at least will have to be painted. After that I might throw my money with insurance money and just get my whole car repaired/painted. I didnt want to fool with the appearance until I did all the engine work...but im taking this a a push in that direction. Who knows maybe it was fate. Anyway looking on the bright side Ill try to get pics and stuff tomorrow as well as some idea how much moolah it will cost.

    FUCK! WTF! What's with all this madness? Have people just gone stupid? Must be the stress of the economy, or something...

    FWIW... I've had good luck finding body pieces in the junkyard in good shape, and if you are going to get the car painted anyway you don't have to worry about the colors matching.
    Sorry to hear about the damage.

    Well good news most estimates are $11-1500, maybe the insurance will want to pay it, but I doubt it.

    Sorry to hear about the crash. I hope it comes out awesome though. I'm counting on you to get that car to at least a half million miles in proper style.
