Damage Pics -- High Res (56K This is gonna HURT) Options

[Fastbird]

Ok, I just got to take a "with my own eyes" look at it. It's not nearly as bad as I was anticipating, but there's a definitive crease in the lower portion of the dent, and the upper portion at the top has a bit of a crease, and there's a dent in the door visible in a couple of the pics.

Looking pretty much straight down on it (disregard my white bummin' shoes):


A standing look -- you can see the crease in the center and straight to the right you can see the dent in the door:

Hopefully it can be fixed without painting, but I'm not holding my breath. I'm taking it to a couple of places on Wednesday or Thursday for estimates, and depending on the outcome we'll either have the entire car painted or just have the quarter panel fixed.

Also, after seeing it first hand, and "testing" the body panel on that and the other side, that cart hit our car with some freaking FORCE, no doubt about that. I have no doubts that this was NOT a case of a runaway cart.

A friend does paintless dent repair and clearbra for hoods and the like. Very well respected. He did a job on a show Viper that has won awards for the paint and finish.


I believe he is in Florida for business for the week. And supposed to be on the east cost alot in the next month.
