NAXJA Forum User
Aight, so i was in a tight parking lot space...and a firebird parking too close to me. I pulled out and aparently my rear 35" tire decided to climb up on this guys left fender on his firebird. :doh: Soooo i gotta get this guys shat fixed. Just wonder if any guys on here would know a fair price that it's gonna cost me to fix it. I know the fender it gone...it looks like i might have pushed his bumper down on the corner. So i was just wonderin if you guys have an idea of what it's gonna cost for Left fender+painted and maybe a bumper(i seriously doubt his bumper is trashed) he's gonna get an estimate so i'll see, i'm gonna call around to some body shops on monday so i can get an idea. But in the mean time just wanted to see what ya'll thought....

Oh yeah before the dude came up i snapped some pics...so i'm gonna try to post them.

You must be so proud.

I think I see the parking line and it looks like he's within it. Being an owner of a big vehicle, you should know how to drive it.

Afterall, it was your "rear 35" tire" on the 'ol XJ.

If you can't navigate out of a parking spot, maybe you need a full-time spotter.

How much it costs? Maybe you'll get lucky with someone else who's run over another Camaro's fender, but it seems like you're just trying to show off with your post.
 
mistake #1 you stopped you shoulda kept going and if anyone saw you tell them you didn't notice a thing. but I agree with terry on this one I don't understand why you guys cant drive.

I concur in spades.
If you can't handle parking, you must be a gem on the trail.
:doh:
 
naw i'm not that much of a tard. The parkin lots spaces are tight and i was pullin out in front of some people and i just cut it to close. It sucks cause my azz is gotta pay for it, i just thought it was kinda funny how happened. the dude was not gay bout it...he thought it was funny. I was just postin' to get an idea on an estimate. Didn't mean to for the post to be sooo serious. any ideas???

Buy a Geo, or a bike, or a pogo stick.
This is another fine example of where wheeling is headed.
##### with 35" tires who can't figure out how to pick a line at the Safeway.
Good luck.
:firedevil

Do you mean long travel shock or arm?

As far as the arm is concerned, I heard that it's ok to use pipe because all the forces are along the axis of the arm. Is That correct? Or do I really need to use Moly. 'Cause I really can't afford the moly right now.

go long travel pogo or go home.
Have you seen how bad longarm pogos unload?

You sir, are a true ######.
Unfortunately, true ##### aren't a rarity anymore.

Well, I guess I'm an over-egoed tool since I can pull out of a parking space without driving over someones vehicle.

I hear JU is nice and friendly.
