I didn't do anything about it because you can't even tell but if you look real close at both sides you can see it's about 1/8" higher. The thing is that I know it's there.


They make ball covers for those if you're worried about the way it looks. I have a black one and it looks good.

A fun thing to do if you have to much time on your hands... Go into a parking lot, find a nice car, on that you can tell that the owner takes great care of. Take a piece of paper, write on it something like: "I'm really sorry about the dent. It was an accident. Here's my number (xxx) xxx-xxxx (bogus number)."

Then just sit in your car and wait for that person to come out. It's hilarious seeing the person freak out, especially when they can't find the dent!

Honestly, I wouldn't care how hot the girl was. . screw that. She's paying for every damn cent to get my truck fixed to 110% condition.

A little off-topic but a little bit on-topic. This 'IB' kid was leaving school behind me the other day. I couldn't even see him he was so close. He was blowing through stop signs, staying on my bumper the whole time. Kept trying to pass me on a double yellow with cars coming the other way. We got to a main road and I took the corner a little fast and my back right tire fell into the dirt. Well you know how that goes, the Grapplers shot a roost right across the road. Lucky for me his windows were down! We finally parted, he flicked me off and I just waved.

Its too funny how hot chicks cant drive...I was sitting in school and some chick sideswiped the corner of my bumper while I was sitting in my truck. Her car was pretty messed up. I was soo pissed come out of my truck and looked at my bumper and there was no damage! I looked her direction and my legs went numb at the site of this chick! She was so hot, we exchanged numbers and we ended up dating for about a year after the accident!

New Truck = $35K

Lift and Tires = $5K

Letting someone else mess it up and not carring = priceless

Not a problem...Camaros and Firebirds are sort of my thing. I just hate to see another 3rd Gen F-body off the road though. At least it wasn't a Iroc, that would have really been a shame.

eh.. i still dont know why i got it in my head that it was a firebird.. :o

kid ruined a perfectly good classic and had to do it using my truck.

that pic was takin 2 days ago. I think it was just parked and left to sit..

adding insult to injury the kid had no insurance and so i had to eat the $250 deductible.

o well, shyt happens
