Accident

Well, week 5 problem 5, my DeLorean was involved in a minor accident
today. I was going down a hwy. today when someone pulled right in front
of me, going much slower than I was. He didn't signal and wasn't
looking. I hit my brakes, locked up all 4 wheels, and hit the right
side of his rear bumper. But that wasn't the worst part, the guy didn't
stop, and kept on driving like nothing happened. Thats when I got
pissed, threw it into first, and tore after that guy. I followed him
into where he worked and thats when I got the first glimpse of the
damage to my D. Only a small scrape on the fascia, but I would still
like it repainted. Unfortunately, my left front fender took the brunt
of the hit. It has two nasty groves below the rub strip, a shattered
marker lens, about 1/2" of crumpled stainless up front, and a fairly
large bump above the fender flare. It looks repairable, but I have no
idea of the cost. I'll be emailing DMC Houston with pictures for an
estimate, in the mean time, if you would like to check out the pictures
I took, go to...

Just wanted to let off some steam.
