Default Whoever Hit My Car, I Hate You

Parked at promanade mall and came out to see my fender curled in a little bit and my headlight pushed back, god i hope i dont have to repaint the fender and or change my headlight

West End body shop has it (not like id drive home now in it anyways), they deal with my dealership...

I must have a sighn that sais ("hey I just bought this 10 days ago")

sorry guys, just venting.

I know the feeling :-(

I've got scraped fenders and rear bodywork to do after my "garage incident"

sorry but dont' know of any "clear jdm's" for you, but I'm sure the folks on this board can point you in the right direction

Wait,

Darren, you said you were taking another car home, weren't you?

This sucks.

BTW, you don't want JDM's, you want Euro's. Same appearance, but they have the correct light beams for LHD vehicles.

promanade is SUV country... they can hit ur car with there reinfored crome tank bumpers without knowing no problem. When i haveto park there, which is rare, I find an isolated spot inbetween 2 big suvs and back the car in as far as possible... this way the back ends of the suvs on ither side of you will act as a barrier for reversing cars with blind drivers.

Darren,

The Euros bolt right up. You can get them with or without the chrome projector just like the JDM's except they have the right pattern.

Some vendors on this site carry them, but not sure who. Do a search.
