Monday got me
On the first morning we've had any rain in a good long while, I spun out on the on-ramp to the freeway on the way to work. I'm OK and nobody else was involved, which is good.
Now I get to deal with getting estimated from body-shops. It doesn't look like it'll be expensive enough to make an insurance claim for, but still not great. The bumper just looks scraped, but the frame is definitely tweaked. You can see the trunk is higher on one side, and the 2 rear doors have different sized gaps between the door and the body.
Does $450 for alignment and fixing the frame, but $1200 in case the frame machine causes more damage and that has to be repaired and painted sound out of line?
