I don't know when or where this happened-but salt hid the damage for who knows how long. It was obviously a white car. Lots of their paint left on my car, some of my paint missing, bumper cracked in 2 places, stripe was ripped off where it begins, and headlight jacked out of alignment. This pisses me off. Just my luck again with the cougar.

Lamp isn't cracked....the cover is though.....looks like I'm gonna have to do another headlight theme this coming season. I'm still fuming over this. This is gonna prove my buffing skills. If not, off to Aly's dad's body shop to get it fixed. If it were any worse-street weapon would be hearing from me very shortly.

I'm thinking a brushed aluminum/black theme. Chrome is too loud for my car. Gonna get the buffer and sandpaper out tomorrow morning. Also gotta find out what made my headlamp move that much.

Wow... when i first looked i thought the damage was in front of the rear wheel.... not that its a TON better but at least it looks like the damage is just to the buper skin right? That sucks man.... i have one in the same spot myself too... its not as big as yours but its through the clear. I just met a good body man today too... he drives a scooby and only does "special" work... as in NOT colision repairs... so i think he can help us with our custom ideas and ground effects repair / paint. Hes... um... i dunno how to describe... diffrent. But i can tell hes quite good.... like a rainman or somthing... wierd. Anyways... ill post the didgits soon.

Got a bit of it out today. It's looking ok so far. The parts where it cracked the paint come tomorrow. Aly's dad is the shop manager of sterling autobody in Dearborn-so I'm pretty sure I can get it touched up there for free if I'm not as good as I think I am. Only time will tell.....
