Getting our first real "wintery" day here in DFW. Supposed to be a high of 50 with 15-20 MPH winds, and drop below freezing tonight.

the boy learned the other day that he shouldn't backout of the stall while the garage door is in motion going up.....spoiler on the stang pushed against the bottom door panel which in turn bent two panels....

the boy can thank his lucky stars that this door doesn't have strut braces since its a 9x7 or the spoiler would've been ripped off of the trunk lid...

now since this garage door is an "overhead door" brand, the cost for fixing it is $500......now I wished the whole door would've dropped on his car....then his vehicle insurance would've had to pay and I would've gotten a new complete replacement door....I'm going to work his butt off for this one

I don't think you'd want the insurance getting involved on that haha.

Just bend the panels back, good as new!

That's one nice thing about having a detached garage at my apartment is the door has to be open for me to even get in the car. Ha

I think the most important thing is that he should've been looking in the rearview if he ws moving in reverse. I've definitely hit more things going backwards than I have forward . . .
