Greyhounds sprint at about 40MPH, and this guy was coming in from my 10:00 at full bore.

I'm pretty sure he was running with some bad friends who put him up to it. Nearly soiled myself.
I bet you saw that all happening in front of your eyes in super slow-mo. Glad he didn't get nailed but I bet he left a couple of droppings down the road a bit.

So I my car is finally ready from the body shop. They ended up replacing the fender and the door. As a bonus, the shop painted a rear spoiler for me!

Better late than never and a free rear spoiler paint job to calm your nerves for making you wait over a month. Glad you got your car back, just in time with the great weather.
