Got woken up by a call from the police department telling me a tree branch fell on my car. Expecting the worst, I went outside and found that I had imagined it to be a lot worse than it was. That's not saying there wasn't any damage.

The driver's fender and hood both have tiny dents that seem too small to pull out. There's tiny spots where paint chipped out of the passenger side of the hood, and on the bumper. Scratches on the fender, bumper, and driver's headlight.

I haven't even made the first payment yet. I'm going to the bodyshop this week, I just felt like posting this.

If I was parked just a foot or two further up, my car wouldve been pretty ___ed up, so I guess I'm not that unlucky.

If anyone knows of a really good bodyshop in central jersey, please let me know. I can try to take pictures but it's nothing spectacular, just a bunch of tiny pains in the ___ when you notice them.

 

did you buy gap protection or falling tree protection?

 

that really sucks to hear sorry man....I can relate to you when I got my 2007 scion tc before I was about to graduate highschool and just bought my sticker to park at school and after a week of having my car it hailed really bad while I was at work and I had two big dents above each tail light and a couple in the quarter panel, the rear window was busted out and my hood had to be replaced because there was way too many dents. It took two months for toyota to fix my car, a total of five times I had to keep going to toyota because they always forgot to fix something or scratched something trying to fix something.

 

pics?

 

Show meee photoooos.

 

That's some bad luck man, sorry to hear. At least it's repairable.

 

Here's some bad photos of the damage.


Dent in the fender. Small pinch dent in the hood slightly above it. So small but such a huge eyesore.


Headlight scratches. I could most likely fix these myself if I wanted to but I'm not going to risk it.


paint chips in the hood. theres a few of these on the bumper too. ugh.

It's just a whole bunch of little spots all over.

 

Dude that fender can replaced for 130shipped plus paint
let me know if you want the site.

 

That sucks man. Dents are bound to happen sooner or later. Paint scratches are so bad for our car, the paint is so cheap from the manufacture. Hopefully it won't cost too much.

Dizzzle: Send that link my way too. My fender is pretty messed up lol
