i hate my life.

on my way to work today, some sort of metallic road debris flys up and cracks my windshield and made a huge dent on the roof between the sunroof and the windshield. I was (and still am) so rediculously fucking pissed. The insurance will cover the glass, but other than that i may be fucked.

Oh and i think i may have mentioned that my rear bumper is cracked, probably from some jackass that doesn't know how to park at the mall.

And my driver side door has tons of scratches in a rainbow pattern.

So i've decided i'm going to do whatever it takes to make this car nice. I'm gonna spend all it'll cost but god dammned mark my words, i will be happy with my car. So come summer time i'm gonna get a CF hood (since my is trash [yes pat i'll get hood pins]) and i'm gonna have all the body work fixed. Buffed, painted, whatever, it's gonna happen. I'm gonna try and get full coverage if at all possible as well. And next winter, i'm getting something with 4 wheel drive, and the rice rocket will be in hibernation. God i hate new england

If you dont want to make the roof damage claim, you may be able to get it out yourself if you remove the headliner and do some fun hammer work. Id give it a shot at least.

Good idea on the pins!

no, i would otherwise, but my new motto "do it right", and i'm fucking sticking to it. And it's too late anyway, i just called in the claim, and they said they'd cover it (yay). I don't know when i'm going to have time to have it worked on because i'm in school, and working 6 days a week.

hahahahaha, using a hammer. man any dent can be removed with a towel and dry ice. wrap the dry ice in the towel place over dent. wait for a POP noise and remove the dry ice as fast as possible. if you wait to long the dent will then pop up and bubble out. used it 4 times on my lude and twice on my civic.

as for the bumper. www.car-part.com or www.partstrain.com use on or the other. carpart is a junk yard online. itll tell you if any of your local junk yard have wahtever part your looking for plus a price and color and condition. partstain is like buying it new. but they only come primiered.

as for hood. FIBER IMAGE is the only good CF hood company imo.
