Been Hit
Well my baby was hit today by an unknown. Came out from work to find someone had backed into my front driver side quarter panel. Not a happy camper I have to crawl over the seat to get in cannot use the drivers door. I almost want to beleive they did not know they hit me i am sure it was a truck or a SUV that did it. Go in tomorrow morning for the estimate.

That is so rotten, guys! I can't hardly stand to think of someone hitting your door area that hard and not owning up to it, Kris!! That is some major inconvenience! I'm glad you weren't in it, of course (except that maybe they would have stopped).
And Harvey too? Now there's a sad thought - was there custom work where he was hit? Were you in the car - are you all right? I understand that California Cruisers (or whatever it's called) has closed up shop - I just hope he is fixable, but I do know what you mean about the car being "different".
I sat in shock and awe last week while I saw a stray shopping cart catch a breeze, go down a little hill, and slam into my right rear quarter panel...oh goody another new dent.
Kris, are you going to need more than a new door - how bad is it?

I feel for all of you. I've collected 2 minor dents that - although fixable BTW by paintless dent repair - are aggravating none the less since both were done by people at work. - One by my GM the other a coworker. If you see theirs cars you can tell they don't give a C_P about their cars. Safe to say I need my job so no words were exchanged

Know how you feel mines been hit 3 times in my apt complex once by neighbor and once just the other day. No real dents on these hits but deep scratches that need refinished and the back bumper cracked during one hit so theres a grand. Needless to say it looks like Ive been in a demo derby on the passenger side, but not getting any thing fixed till I move other wise it will just keep happening.

Is it open season on HHR's?
Mine was a run-away Home Depot shopping cart. After trying 5 different paintless dent removal companys (none said they could do the job) It now goes into the body shop on Monday
