Default Accident Pics

A few quick pics after bringing my car back from the body shop. *A few weeks ago some clown ran through a stop sign and messed up my car a little.


Just picked it up today. *While it was there I ditched the zr1 spoiler and had him mold in a slp spoiler. *Much happier now with the look.

Hope you're okay and glad you got her fixed... repair looks good & spoiler looks good too.

It looks like the person who hit you was driving a 2016 F150. I'm sure he or she will be bumming about this costly mistake for the next three years through elevated insurance rates.

Sorry to see the damage, but it looks like whatever body shop you used did a great job repairing the car and molding in those spoilers.

Way to turn lemons into lemonade. Your C5 looks great and better than ever. Looks like your body shop did a great job with the paint match.
