| Well, I was going to fast on an on-ramp today, and a semi cut over in front of me to get off...... Well Lil' Bogie's brakes locked up, and I clippedthe back end of the trailer........... Got a hole in the bumper, as well as a few scuffs and a dent on the pass. fender.......I can't believe how little damage there is...and that it didn't take out the headlight too.....   |

| Well, got a bit of good news..... Front bumpers are way stinking cheaper than rears..... Rear bumper for my truck, $370~ front bumper skin, no bracketry, $77+30 shipping from www.rockauto.com I will most likely order one of them next week when I have some money...... |

| honestly thats not bad at all.. from here it almost looks like you might be able to buff most of the damage out of the fender, or wetsand and buff it if its too bad. _________________  2006 black /SRT//8/12.521 @ 112.263 MPH (corrected time) 2nd place SRT8 shootout Great Lakes Dragway 2008 / 2nd place Maywood Park AutoX 2009http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjQeby5cB1Q / http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0So5e-GGXM |

| Yeah Jon, I gotta wash it an see how bad it really is...... As you can see by the flare, my truck is filthy right now....... I thinkthe worst of it is right on the edge by the headlight...... From how the fender pushed in a bit, (popped out decently too.... Still needs a bit more tlc) the paint cracked right on the edge of the fender...I want to get that sealed up asap........
I don't know what it is, but this is the second time a dodge in my family has done a tango with a semi......... And drove away.......I would estimate it was about a 20-30mph impact too...... Both this and the semithat rearended us in columbus OH a year and a half ago.....so is it the dodge? Or is it someone watching out for my family "upstairs"? I am thinking it's the latter..... |
