Backed Into a High Curb! :(

. . . . just about 10 minutes ago. Pulled into a parking space at the parking garage at work. Not my "usuall" space. While backing up, I hear a sound of plastic collapsing!

This fucking HIGH curb attacked my rear skirt! :angry:

Gouged the hell out of the skirt and put a large dimple in it! :'(

Damn, I'm glad I didn't paint it already!

Time for a new skirt! I guess I'll also get the WW lip for the front, and get them both painted.

OOOOOUCH...and after that great shine you had going on with the teflon, guess the new skirt will have to get tefloned too...

complete bummer...

i wish i had a garage at work, i've learned to not park under trees for shade b/c birds will use your hood as target practice...

quote for the day

good luck with that man! :ouch:

Damn Rick! I hope it isn't as bad as it sounds and yes, another reason to spend more money!

Damn Rick, im sorry about that. I did the same thing in a parking garage in the mall. I rubbed the bumper (right under the taillight)aginst the cement wall. Anyone know how much a new front and rear bumper would be?? Better yet, where can i get a bodykit for the CL???? (If im gonna spend the money for a new bumper, it might as well be a bodykit)
