Default The aftermath...

She's fixed, and looks a little better now.

The photo of the grille is in the shadows. The outer trim ring is now aero blue. I will post a photo when the sun is shining...

Just avoid parking next to Graphite limited roadsters and you should be fine.

I read your thread when your door got hit. What I dislike is people that do not own up to their carelessness of damaging someones vehicle, a sweet one at that and not at the very least leave a note with their info so they could compensate you for their screw-up.

However, the body shop did a nice job! looks great. What did they do exactly to it? was it repaired or the door was replaced?? noticed the door was taken out in one of your photos....

If you don't mind my asking, what did the bill come out to?

Glad you're still coming. It looks perfect !!
Just be sure to park between two other Crossfires whom are owned by people you know....No issues then.

ohhhh......... I got a dent from this event in fall '09 from a crossfire owner... It can happen anytime, anywhere... But it is only a car and they can't stay perfect forever.

Where did you order that grill from? I was looking at one for mine off Ebay for about $120 or so.

Used a door skin, $1735.00. The coupe made 2 yrs before it was dinged. So lets hope it doesn't happen again. The roadster, knock on wood, has made longer. I know I am among car people, and Beaner is correct, can't stay perfect forever, but as long as there is a body shop next door, mine will.
Puts the other mods on hold. But, she looks good again. And answer the other question, the grille was purchased from SRT SIX. He has chrome, and black. I painted mine. I need to get a better photo up when the sun is shinin'....

Congrats on the fix. ( hope the insurance helped you some )
I can imagine the sick feeling you must have experienced upon first seeing the damage.

I'm a bit curious : what the heck is that thing parked behind your crossie in the 4th photo ?
