Default The last C4 bumper cover!

My Grand Sport was attacked by some animal in the garage 10 grand in damages, Chewed the bumper cover and AC lines and scratched the car up. I was told I got the last C4 bumper cover GM had after searching for 3 days! I have not driven the car since Carlisle in 96 reunion. Also looks like rear OEM spring has collapsed as the car seems to low. I will know better when they get it on the lift.

thinking raccoon. I have prints on the motor because the hood was on a 45* angle. I'll post pictures soon. Chewed through the AC line!

John was on a drinking bender, blacked out and went crazy, he chewed through the car Don't you remember John? The little feet are from your toy animal, the same one that you sleep with The rear spring collapsed because of that big girl you had sitting on it for a photo shoot that night, (big girls underwear) if you remember when she sat on it the tire blew out.

Glad when you were on your bender you got the animal who chewed my car by the ears from behind and gave it a wild ride. That taught him a lesson. He will never be back after being so disappointed!

Could it have been a love-struck skunk trying to have it's way with your "skunk"?



Sorry for your loss.
