So the girlfriend was getting out of my truck and slammed my door into her step-father's 2006 F-150 XL.

I've got two spots now on the edge of my door. One is a decent chip but the other one is more of a scratch than anything. Does anyone know "roughly" how much a body shop would charge to fix something like that?

 

dude im sorry.......that sucks truly.

im going to say....50-100?

 

meh...go to ford and buy one of those little bottles of touch up paint. thats prolly all the body shop will do anyways is touch it up and charge you out the a$$

 

More importantly now...what's gonna happen to the GF. I say get a rope!!!!

 

Well, she knows how I am about my truck. I just looked at her like WTF, she started crying like 2 minutes later.

 

yeah.....you cud hang her from your mirror haha im kidding of course

 

Thats not going to do any good than she won't pay for it to be fixed!!

 

 

I say if they're going to charge YOU out the a$$, then you should charge your GF out the a$$ (you being the benefactor, of course)

 

Then she'll end up kickin the door and leaving dents

 

Heh, this is too funny (Well, it sucks, but you know what I mean). I've always been the same way with my trucks... I always had to train my GFs how to properly open and close a door, where to park (to stregically avoid dings), how to detail, etc.

One GF went 2.5 years doing GREAT with my Ranger, and one night as she ran up (galloping really) with her arms swinging to give me a hug (She was walking me to my truck to go home) she knicked the bed with the diamond ring I got her... it immediately went from happy and carefree to a look of terror on her face. She immediately started to well up and I just took her in my arms, told her its ok, gave her a kiss, and then got in my truck and left. I didn't even check the scratch till I got home. I felt so bad for her I couldn't do it, heh.

Turns out it was the only visible scratch on the truck after 3 years of owning it when it came time to sell it. Oh well... (Sad thing is she left me high and dry too )

 

That sucks man.. You better make her make up for her mistake!! If you know what I mean..

 

thump if it is right on the edge just touch it up with a botle of touch up lay it on nice and smooth down the edge of the door.

 

You should just trade it in The girlfriend that is..Jk dude

 

Look at it this way Thumper... It could be worse.
