A Blessing or a curse, You decide!

Well... today, as I was filling a perscription today I decided to help a guy out with a stalled vehicle and get him to the parking lot so he could get towed, kinda like my good deed for the day.

Anyhow, I did that and everything was fine, I come back out and get back in my truck and what happens, as im pulling out some dumb lady backs into the side of my truck. I had to watch her cram into my Door and fener. It wasnt a pretty sight for me. Anyhow, luckily it was right on my pinstriping that I was wanting off anyhow. She was at fault so im going to rape her insurance coverage and get a new paintjob, or maybe some 18's or even a nice set of bags, I can live with some dings with bags

Anyways heres an Idea of what I could do with the paint, anybody else have some ideas or a photoshop Of what it could look like?

Im not talking about that color, BLEH!

Im talking about that style of a classic paintjob on these year trucks. That color is kinda fruity.

Why would you want to get a new paintjob over body damage?

No, a new paintjob, WITH the bodywork.

Well... a paintjob is kinda out of the question now, Id just keep it white, but lose the pinstriping. It would be straight and clean all white.

OR I could get some nice 18's or 17's with tires, hrmmm...

Bling and dented with pinstripes or Clean and straight without the bling... Descisions Descisions.

My estimate for the bodywork and pinstriping removal was about 1600.

Funny how a door and an already killed fender bought me my camaro

Second time my truck was in a wreck I got two little scratches on my back passenger side bumper. What happened to the ford Well the whole front end got ripped a new one from headlight to headlight and bumper It wasn't my fault by the way :p I couldn't help but to hold it in from laughing when I told the officer I wasn't worried about my truck he just shook his head looking at the ford.
