Had a slight mishap

[Kap142]

Wellllllll, I was leaving a new Chili's and had to make a U turn around a divider and hit something slick. Back end came around, I corrected and into a chain link fence. Happened faster then a fart after chips and caso.

Est was done today and I'll have it tomorrow. Damage was not too bad but Infinity is going to replace all the front bright work, grills and all and the lower glass too. The car will be repainted all the way back to the front doors if they can match the paint or the entire car if they can't.

So we shall see. and yes Andy you did hear a distinct "Aw S*it".

A local shop had been recommended who specialize in classics. I'll talk to them tomorrow

If you were in the Pinellas area, I'd be glad to do it for you!
We're known around the country for custom painting motorcycles, but have done quite a few Vettes (old and new) and easily painted 2000+ motorcycles/cars.

Good luck to you though!

Nice Vette!

Thanks all, The vette will be fine. IMO the damage was minor and repair will be about a week or two and no more (so they say). Pictures do not show much other then a 2" crack about the LF wheel. The lower air damn took a pretty good hit but nothing real outrageous. Parts are now on order and she'll go in the shop within the week.

Hey Ken,

Sorry to hear about the situation. Just be careful with the paint. Speaking from experience, golds are very difficult to match. So make sure that you look at it out in the bright sun light. That will give you the best light to make sure that everything matches. Good luck!
