Not Good
Not the way I had hoped to start my turbo/motor change project.
My car got damaged at the shop and will require paint work on the driver front fender. On the upside, it already had a deep ding on the fender that I was hoping to have fixed and painted in the furture....still kinda sucks though.

There are horror stories about shops that damage cars and send them out for cheap repair without even notifying the owner. Count your blessings.
On the bright side, you'll soon have your project done, and perhaps one of the faster cars in your neighborhood I'd suspect.

"Gray gray" in French?
No idea about that, but you could go down to St. Louis cemetery, find that woman's tomb, and make three red X in chalk....
OUCH! Sorry to hear about the ding Abby! That black car in your icon is too cool. Of course it brings up the notion that if you are doing some body work anyway....you know, you could go ahead and yank those rub strips and remove the side markers....
N!
