Rear ended again!!!!!

I was headed down to, of all places, Mr. D's (my favorite body shop), stopped at a stoplight and I heard the squeal of tires. CRASH. Yep, a gal plowed into the rear end of my SSR. Talk about a chick magnet. When the light turned green I pulled around the corner, stopped and got out to see how much damage was done. To my surprise I could not see any. After careful examination I saw one tiny little chip and some cracked paint where the rear facia flexed. I got the gal's insurance info and went on down to Mr. D's and Dave checked it out. Everything looked good. He'll just have to pull the facia, a little fill on the chip and sand and paint.

I feel your pain Lloyd, sorry you have to go through this again.

Hope you're OK, and don't start getting neck or back pains as a result.

Actually, if I didn't point it out, probably no one would notice. I'll be taking it in on the Monday after Barstow.

Glad you're ok. Also, nice that the damage is minimal to the SSR. Too bad it had to happen though.
