yikes... glad to see you're both ok. you know you can probably just "push" that dent out. i do'nt see any paint damage.
Thanks, JT.

A cheap repair might be possible, but the stone chips and other issues on the bumper and hood have been bugging Rick for some time.

We're going to open up the wallet a bit and get it done so that the S looks like new again.

I'm sure you've already thought of this but you might want to have
someone check the undercarriage of the car as well.

I'm sure Rick will have it checked, but there was nothing but grass where I landed. No rocks or trees.

If I ever buy a new car, I'll do that. What does that cost, anyways?

Levi....yep, we were lucky.

About a month after the accident, a check engine light came on. Some hose from the CAI had gotten disconnected down the line, and caught up somewhere. The guy that had the car on the lift when we had new tires put on didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.

Rick brought it to a local guy he does business with. He checked the code, found out the issue and repaired it. Came out of that cheap for $84.00.
