The wait is almost over.

Well since I'm new here I share my story. June 1 I hit a pothole in a parking lot up in Wild Wood. It was full of water, and just looked like a puddle. Turns out it was about a foot deep. There was a cone in it to mark it. But it had fallen over, and was covered by water. The front of my Z was smashed. After my insurance company did their estimate the damage was over $10,000. So while it was in the shop I had some extra stuff done. New Tourenn kit with the wing, And a new paint job. It is going to be a dark maroon. I get my car back on Tuesday, I can't wait. Here is a picture from the estimate. I'll post some of the finished product next week.

Thanks for the welcomes. It was a BIG pothole. When I hit it I was only going about 10 mph. But one good thing is that I've been out of the country for work since June 4th. So I haven't been in a big hurry to get it finished.

I just found out I'm going to have to wait 2 more weeks until I can get my car. My boss just asked me to stay at work for 2 extra weeks. I can't complain, I'm getting paid to hang out on a ship. But here is a picture for befor the pothole.
