Thumbs down Crunch!

Neighbor backed into the 4x4 the other day. Crushed the door all in. I'll have pics later. He had insurance. Just hope they can match my paint.

That SUX! But I'm left wondering the same 2 things... is your neighbor blind and what the h*ll is a blind guy doin drivin somethin' that can impact a door that's 3 feet off the ground!! But seriously, your paint's relatively new right? I would think a decent shop shouldn't have any problems matching color. Good luck.

17 year old girl with a Ford Focus. Apparently they are tall enough. Funny thing is, I always figured my tires would be a buffer for this kind of stuff because they stick out so far. She backed in just right i guess.

How much damage was done to the focus? At least they make replacement doors for the Blazer now! You can let us all know how they fit. A good body shop should be able to match the paint.

Only a broken tail light on the focus. I got a quote at a body shop at $1200 and that was a replacement skin.

17 year old girls will do it to you.....i'm surprised she stuck around/ told anyone....let me guess, did she have to 'cuz paint from the focuz was all over your truck, or vice versa. Usually they just run. I guess her being your neighbor would have something to do with it. Man if i had a dime every time i saw some floozey get in a fender bender in the HS parking lot.....

Don't know if you know it yet or not but your mom was in hit and run yesterday. Women hit rear of sanoma then side swiped left rear getting away. Too quick to get plate number. Very little damage.

At least she didn't hit the rear quarter panels! Other than the front fenders, the door is one of the easiest things to fix or replace. When are you going to get it fixed?
