            That sucks, man. Please tell me you're going to fix it. These are the first pictures of your car I have seen, but that thing sure looks nice, and like you've put a lot of work in it. Definitely looks like its worth fixing to me.

                It's kind of discouraging. I just replaced the front fender a few months back and the driver's side was nearly perfect. I even lost my power mirror that I'm going to have trouble replacing. The rear fender/quarter panel is the worst. It actually pushed the interior trim in the hatch area 1/4 inch in. I have two major road trips I'm taking in the next 4 months and I was hoping to have it painted by then. Looks like I'll have to put it off awhile longer now. The painting that is, I still plan on making the road trips. One of which is the Western Canada meet.

                        Thanks, everyone. I had my seat belt on, thankfully. When I walked in the house, my daughter said, "I'm glad you're ok, and I'm glad you hadn't put the spoiler on yet." :lol: me too!!

                        Since I spun around, I actually slid through ditch backwards while on my side. This forced a bunch of snow in the rear side window. It broke the latch but none of the glass is cracked.

                            Maybe you should look into a parts car around your area so you could swap stuff over..............
