Fender Bender

Hey guys so last weekend my girlfriend and I were on our way to sixflags. It was raining pretty hard and I was stopped at a red light, I look in the rear view and see this jeep not stopping! She was pretty nice about it considering the stuff that was coming out of my mouth . It's not that bad but enough to **** a kid off who busts his ass for his new car. She already sent me a check, the body shop estimated just about 500 bucks. Should I fix it or just keep the cash for mods.

I'd use the money for mods if it were me. I was also in a wreck this past weekend. An alero pulled out in front of me and I hit him going 40. The only damage was a couple scratches and I need an alignment but I was screaming at the guy in the alero. I was so pissed.

I actually got ran into by my girlfriend about a year ago in my old Balt. Put it this way she was going way to fast in a tauras in the rain around a corner came around the bend and saw me at the red light. She slammed into me going about 25mph, her car got thrown backwards mine didnt move, I get out screaming and looking on the ground for car parts and there was not even a scratch. Freakin amazing!! She was lucky as hell, first and last time she drives over the speed limit.

I got hit in the back while stopped at a yield sign. A month later I switched lanes on the highway and got hit on the side but still the back bumper. Il replace it eventually but i jus hope someone else decides to mess it up some more

Seriously, a $3 stick of black touch up paint and you wouldn't be able to tell a damn thing.
the rear bumper is plastic anyway, it's not like it's going to rust. The reason it's $500 is because they'll have to replace that whole bumper, there's no way to sand it, pop out dents, and repaint.
Scratches giuve a car character. Just tell everybody it's from brake checking an SRT after you smoked him
