doing Deliveries in your camaro suck yep
I was doing the last delivery of the day at work today and while inside i heard an awful sound. I ran outside and some A$$hol3 in a Acura MDX backed into my camaro. i think its amazing how someone could miss seeing a big BRIGHT RED camaro behind them.
Turns out it was an employee of the company i was delivering to and it was a company car. Spoke to the CFO and he said that i should call him tomorrow and he'll take care of things. I got all the info anyway as well as witnesses and all that jazz.
Anyway, here are some pics. lemme kno what u think
Good news is he missed the CME valence since i kno how hard those are to find/replace

that's shitty man....i'd check the wheel and taillight and make sure nothing else is broken or scratched. you should be getting a whole new fender, but atleast you won't hafta pay for it.

Yikes. Even though the company will be paying to replace it, it's still down time. Is this the only car you have? Suck to hear that man. But it's good he missed the CME.

damn, i had almost the same thing happen, mine was a hit and run, where they took out the passenger side, on my 01 WS6, really pissed me off cause i just got that side fixed from where a 3rd gen camaro hit me on that side at the Trans am Nationals back in August. your at least looking at 1k worth of work by a body shop, and make sure you take it to a good shop....

Man that sucks, but it looks pretty minor. Shouldn't be to hard to fix, and it could be alot worse... but man soak it up for all its worth. Get a good bit of money to fix it and get some mods as well...
Pain and suffering of seeing your car like that. And for us seing it as well. Man I gotta admit the pain of seeing your car like that has got to be worth 50G.

Ouch, I was hit in my left rear quarter too, its expensive to repair, not a easy switch like the front plastic fenders. Make sure to get the rear end/suspension checked out too, although it didnt look like it was a very hard impact. I hated driving a rental Malibu 4 banger while mine was in the shop. 
, made me appreciate my car a whole lot more. ha

I know the feeling, I had my left rear destroyed by some a-hole in a moving truck while running a delivery. That was the second time my car was hit, the first time someone bumped my rear fascia but it wasn't too bad.
