Default Wreck in 03 GT Vert...son of a ...

Its such a nice day here today, my dad borrowed the 03 GT vert...decided to go to walmart And when he was leaving, he was halfway out of the spot and the lady like 2 cars down decided to back out too and she popped the side of the car...he just called, bringing it back here now...

Its just f*cking great...and because both were out of their spots its no fault apparently.

Ive got full coverage on it..but the deductable is no doubt the same price as the damage. Not looking forward to seeing how bad, he said its "cosmetic"...but hell you can have a 3" gash along the side of the car and be "cosmetic".....

Pics to follow...

Well, its both worse and not as bad as Id expected...

Rear bumper is pushed to the left about 1/4".

RR cobra wheel got gouged but the lip and tire are untouched.

Fender took damage but no bends.

The other vehicle was a Honda Ridgeline, the lady driver had no idea the mustang was back there (blind spots like a motherf'er)

pics are uploading now...they dont look bad but the paint is cracked on the bumper cover, ill compound it out tomorrow and see how it ends up..if Ive got to have the bumper pulled and painted...ugghhh

Oh that's not bad at all. As long as her insurance covers it, youre fine.


I was expecting the bumper to be hanging off or something ridiculous.

Sucks man. My dad borrowed my pristine 98 Cadillac seville without so much as a rock chip on it. He was getting gas at wal-mart and backed up to the pump, unfortunately he clipped the kiosk door and scraped the **** outta the quarter. So, don't let your dad take your ride to wal mart.

No ins involved, really no point. Also, it was no fault, 2 vehicles backing out hit..2 people not looking where they should have been looking.
