So my wife texts me while at jury duty today......
"I had a small accident in the truck today, its not too bad".........About 2 hrs later she sends me this pic on the phone.......
![](http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a304/exceldetail/bumperscrape-1.jpg)
She apparently got a little close to a trash receptacle at work, as delivery trucks were limiting her personal space needed to properly navigate a Ford Expedition into a 9'w parking stall. Shes all of 5'2'', and is just a second bigger then a minute. She thought I was going to tear into when I got home, but thats her Mulligan for 08.
I guess this will be my first real attempt at body repair. Its scraped all the way down to the metal. Im thinking a little sanding, some Bondo to fill the low spots, resand, prime, paint, wet sand, clear coat, and wetsand again......

It doesn't look too bad there Patrick. From what I can see in the picture, there's only a small indentation on the corner? I know you're more than capable of fixing this but the question is will you really have the time? You're always so busy!!!
Say hi to the wife and kids for me.
