I hate overpasses.....

2theextreme

Well, let's see....where do I start? Today is my two week anniverary of owning my yellow 370z but Monday I have to take it into the body shop for repairs. Last Wednesday evening while driving home on Interstate 395 going under an overpass something either fell or was thrown from another car and slammed my hood. And I do mean slammed....sounded like a sledgehammer hit it. I knew there would be damage but didn't know how much until I pulled into the driveway. At night it looked bad but the next day....under the light.....there has to be at least 4 or 5 dents and one scratch that is at least 3 or 4 inches long and maybe 1/2 inch wide and bored all the way down to the metal.

Whatever it was it was heavy! Thankfully when it bounced off the hood it didn't come back down on the roof or trunk and there is no windshield damage. $782 in body work needed....thank goodness for insurance. The saddest part? I haven't made a payment yet and hadn't reached even 200 miles on the car. Heck, I hadn't even pulled into a gas station to put my first tank of gas in the car. (I've broke 200 miles and put my first tank of gas in since the accident)

My aunt said you've gotten the first one out of the way......the first is the worst they say. I'm thinking ANY in this car will be the worst....hahaha! So, I drop it off Monday and it should take 3 days to fix. Not bad....at least I'll have it back next week. No liquids running from under the car, the horsepower is still there so it appears to just be cosmetic damage at best. I wonder how long before I can get that Xzilon paint protection put back on the hood? Also, I want to get that clear bra now more than ever.....I want the ENTIRE car wrapped, in fact.

I'm considering taking before and after pictures so I'll show the damage tomorrow.
