Man, I am so ticked right now. Not even two weeks ago, I finally, after more than a year of putting off a new vehicle purchase, picked up a new Lightning to add to my stable. It hasn't even been two weeks, and what do you think I find on my new treasure today? Yep, you guessed it, a big, fat, ding in my door. Geez! I've only even parked it at like one or two public places so far too.. I swear, people these days just have absolutely no respect for your valuable and prized property.

A new member, in tears...

Dan, it sucks alright. i keep the "Ding Doctor" on retainer. he's already made 2 house calls to my office. if i have a door ding on my black "L" with 10 coats of Zaino wax, i refuse to wash it until fixed (costs 50 bucks for a housecall!) but it's worth it, right? God, i hope i'm not saying this outloud.

 

Hey Dan,

Sorry to hear about the door ding. Paintless dent removal does work, if you've ever had to use a company that specializes in this art. As long as the paint is ok...it will be ok.

Welcome to the board and to L ownership! Good to have you here. How's the Mustang running? It's been awhile since we've talked.

You think that's bad! I dinged my door myself on a gas station post. I thought gas was expensive.
Be careful out there!

 

Yeah, I'll probably have it fixed. But, what a bummer! It's not really that noticeable, but it is to me. You know what I mean. errrr. Regardless, I love the new beast. It'll look real nice pulling the Stang into the track!

Wes, howdy and long time! Stang is ok. I just finished the new 377 actually, and I'm just waiting for a new radiator to start it up for the first time. Lidio (Alternatice Auto) and myself will be tuning it maybe next week. Should rock with 18 lbs of boost, eh?

Btw: It's official, you have entirely to many Fords!!! (If such a thing is possible - I guess not!!).... hehehe
