FL Dent on my fender!!

So I go to my buddies exhaust shop to give him a hand installing a new turbo on a PT Crusier and when I leave to go home I find this dent in my fender. People that hit and run parked cars SUCK and should have their ***** and/or vagina removed!! 18 year old car with a strait body ruined by sum moron. i guess its time to re-paint.

Any one have a strait Montego Blue fender they would like to get rid of??

That shouldn't be bad for a body shop to fix. They can massage the dent out, repaint, done.

Sorry, dude. At least it's just a front fender. That's, like, one of the easiest panels to fix/replace. Still shitty, though.

Somebody hit and ran at my office this week.

Used fenders are cheap as well. A repainted fender might be a good option if your fender isn't perfect anyway.

That is why you never street park your 7 on busy streets :\ On my first 7 I swear someone had a vendetta on my driver side rear quarter panel b/c within 1 year I had to paint it 3 times on the same area.

I am going to have a body shop do an estimate on tuesday. I have full coverage so its getting fixed.

The fender is pushed back into the driver doo rjust enough that it rubs when opening past half way and the hood to fender gap is off a little. The whole panel is tweaked, looks worse in person than in the pic.

That sucks, man...and yes it will need some TLC from a professional.

When I got my car 10+ years ago, it had a couple of door dings and such, in the time since I bought it, it's picked up a few more by inconsiderate asshats. I just don't understand people, other than realizing people don't want ANYTHING against their insurance.
