Shitty Day

Yea my day has been pretty F-ed up today. After spending an enjoyable 4 hours in my lab and 6 in class I was pretty tired and wanted to get home and eat some pizza and take a fat shit. Well I noticed when I got to my car in the parking lot (which was about 1/2 mile out), that my splash guard was hanging down a little bit. Well I thought "no biggy" and stuffed it in the middle guard so it would hang or bobble around. All was fine I was smoking a cigarette and breezing through I-95 on my way home. There was this really fine looking chick in a Celica next to me so I slowed down and just stared and zoned out on her for a little bit when "CRACCKKK POP!" I thought I hit a fucking cow. I looked in my rearview mirror and plastic shit was flying everywhere on the highway. A guy in a Tauras swerved off the road to avoid it. As soon as I could I merged throught traffic and got off at the first exit. Well I went to Acura ordered a new inner wheelwell. Then took my car to the collision place across the street which fixed my car since I got in a wreck about a month ago. Well we were looking at the car and noticed the bumper was coming off the hoods alignment was all fucked up again, the middle splash is hanging down now. And to top it all off, I've got three HUGE paint chips in my right fender. These are burly looking chips and I just got a new y-pipe, OEM kit, and mugen grill this week. Now my car looks like my grandma's ass. I'm pissed.

What?? It was the splash guard underneath the wheel well. On the high way I think the tire caught it and flung up into the wheel well itself causing the dents which removed the paint from underneath.

id blame the collision place for improperly fixing your car last month, the only other way that inner wheel well would fly off is if your car is slammed. thats my opinion

even if the car is slammed, that wouldnt make the inner wheel well come off, man that shits on there good.

You didnt have any prior problems with the wheel well at all? I say it's the fault of your collision place. wheel wells don't just fly off for no reason, they must have left a few screws loose

unfortunately you have no evidence that it IS their fault

Yea when I took it by to them they said to bring it in on Tuesday (goin out of town for weekend) and they're going to research the work they did on the car. I'm pretty sure they're at fault and if they are they repair everything no cost.
