So I'm driving to work this morning and I start to hear a chattering noise, there's nowhere for me to really stop and look at what the hell is going on so I keep driving, I hear it every time the car takes a dip so I'm thinking, "aww crap, my sideskirt must have come loose in the back". So I limp it up to work, pull into the parking lot, reach down and try and jiggle the skirt and it's rock solid, 2 seconds later I peer out towards the back and see a nail sticking out of my sidewall about 3 inches, we're talking road warrior style here, then I notice the paint on my fender is all nice and gnarled up as well...ugh Well I hopped back into the car and rove to the nearest tire place, now I have 2 new Falken ziex512s on the back..yay. Anyone up for condolences? or care to contribute to my repair fund? (hah) I have a small jar of paint, probably about a liter or so, maybe a a little less, I wonder if it's any cheaper using my own paint and having someone fix it, or just having them have to mix etc. and fix it? All this after I just got it running perfectly, after running like dogshit for the last 5 months...ugh some more

yeah, I'm going to see if I can't maybe touch it up a bit, it's not earth shattering, but just enough to be noticable and irritating.

bummer, I hope she was worth it It's now a distance ding, meaning you can't really see it from a distance, still jacked up a bit, but at least it's not as obvious now after touching it up a bit.

Randall,
I know how you feel . Remember my newly gouged rear bumper
in Salado?? Drove me to depression until I had it redone before the car show...............

But, If you hadn't showed me, I never would have seen it.
When you're ready, Jeff Baum can do it reasonably; BUT drive it a while first.
I MEAN------COME OUT TO THE DRIVING EVENTS before something else
happens!! We love you even if you have a (very hard to see) few
flaws in the paint.

Besides, Canary Yellow is my favorite 8 color & you've go the only
one. This is a huge responsibility! We can't go without you.
LD.

I still have to get my bumpers repainted. It always seems when you get one thing fixed, another breaks!
