I second that - but I'm sure it's not *just* sheet metal damage - perhaps
some pride got damaged in the mix?
At least no one got hurt - that's the important part - We can always fix our
cars. Well, almost always - my 1St V8 was totaled (sob-sob). Finally got it
replaced 3 weeks ago. It actually worked out OK. Paid $7K for the old one in
May '98, totaled it in Mar '01 with 2 payments to go  >:-(   but the
insurance paid $10,2K for it, and the new Indigo Blue (vin#115, BTW) car
cost me $8,5K with allot of work having been done to it in its life -
maintenance work, that is.
