Default Goddamn CARPORTS!!!!

Well the other night I get home from work during the wind and Rain and find that my carport collapsed on the camaro. It scratched and ripped up the car pretty good, to the tune of 4100$ in damages. Hey atleast the car is going to get a complete paintjob outta it.

If anyone has any pics they can post up of some black camaros with some basic flames or maybe a pearl mixed in with the black I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

I think the car would look cool with that new black metallic paint that comes on the new ZR1 Corvette. Not sure if the paint is available yet, but it looks sweet.

That sucks! Sorry to hear that man. Hopefully it's enough damage to force you to change the color of your interior too..

Seriously, as long as no one was hurt. Hope you get your baby back on the road soon!

If you're having insurance take care of it, check out if you have to pay the deductible in your state. In some states, if your car is totaled or damaged due to an act of God (fire, flood, sink hole, wind,...), you don't have to pay the deductilbe. Happened to me (car burnt to the ground due to a short in the main wiring harness). I checked with my insurance rep, he checked on it with his headquarters ('cause he had no idea), and they came back and said they'd pay the whole dime. Might be worth a call.
