Default Need a Carfax

I bought my 2000 C5 about 6 weeks ago, and I have noticed some things on the car that make me believe that it might have been in an accident (a bad one). Everything under the hood looks fresh out-of-the-box new (no one could keep it looking like that no matter how often it is cleaned), some of the pannels look to not be lined up exactly right, and one of the pannels was obviously repainted. I was wondering if some one could please run a Carfax on my VIN for me. It would be greatly appriciated.

...also how much of my VIN# is needed?

Thanks.

Thanks man. So it says nothing on the guy that traded it in to the dealership right before I bought it, and nothing on me owning it now, because I bought it with almost 60k miles on it?
