Scratched!

Hey Guys, My mom drove my car today, and she still didnt get the hang over my TL-S. So she went to buy groceries at a nearby Supermarket, so she found a spot and the spot was facing a wall, but by accident she went to far, and hit the wall. So she reversed and there was alot of scratching noise. I was like OH NO!! The bottom part of the bumper's point (near the Foglights)got dented in, and some of the paint got scraped off. But then again I was thinking of getting the OEM bodykit for my baby. But Im thinking the bodykit just covers the damage, so i was wondering shoulld I fix the damage or should I just leave it, and wait for the body kit? Does any1 know whats an estimation of fixing the dent. Like around? And I think I should let my mother pay for the damage But still..u know how much around?

yeah tell your mum the damage is 829 bucks, which is exactly how much you need for the kit shipped. just get the kit and cover it up

btw, you said the bumper also hit the wall? so the bumper is scratched too? well the kit cant' cover that up.

and just fyi, with the kit there is absolutely no way you should let your mum drives

I never let my mom drive my car b/c I don't want to be getting mad at my poor little mama should something happen. Better not to even venture down that road.

The bodykit should cover it up enough and is probably the cheaper way to go . Have mom split it with you or something and go for it!!

hahha...Don't worry, My mom and I had an agreement that she'll buy the front lip of my OEM bodykit. So in a way it's all good. I'm paying for my college tuition.

actually, We split the cost. My mom was going to buy me an Accord, but since i knew the new accord was coming out I waited. Then when I saw the new car, I didnt really like the sedan. So I talked to my mom and I chipped in another 10k. :p
