That hurts just to look at it . Glad you are ok . Before you part it , did you consider finding another car with a dead motor ?

Wow the front is gone, the rest looks to be ok and the driver the most part, wonder how fast it was going when it hit to cause such a big dent with our solid front end?

Ouch, glad u r ok!

I concur that will not buff out and am betting the door still opens. Good/or bad... a testament to how strong these front ends are.

On the flips side, I'm guessing you a pretty sore from sudden deceleration. Were you wearing 5 points?

Hope you get some solace knowing your car will now be helping the survival of other sharks.
