Figured I would share this so we can share the pain. Yesterday I finally finished my paint! The matte was perfect came out great I was up till 2 in the morning putting my lights, headlights, weather striping, and everything else I could. So here comes the sad part.....

I drove to Arcadia to pick up some stuff for work and I hate the 605 as is but this just tops it off. My lower rubber weather stripping on my driver door was making some noise and I got super worried thought it was touching my paint etc . So I quickly pulled over to the emergency lane as fast as possible. Normally I never pull over I just get off at an exit. So I get out and start fixing the seal when I turn to my right i see a semi truck halfway in the emergency lane. I just got as close to my car as I could and from the wind alone the door got pulled out so hard it bent the hinges since i didn't have time to put the door stops on last night. Took me 10 minutes to push the door closed.... So now I have this and I can't open my driver side door.





To top off the story that **** just kept driving like nothing happened. I would have chased him down if could of closed my door....

 

Damn man. That sucks. Sorry to hear that.

 

your door don't looked properly aligned

 

yeah the hinges are pulled out and now the edge of the fender is bent I think.

 

what a major bummer!

 

yeah. Talk about some bad luck and to make it even worse a truck full of rocks let them spill all over the freeway and I got some fresh rock chips already !

On the bright side the truck didnt hit me I guess

 

that sux.

 

dam that sucks...dam that thing must be even harder to keep clean than a OB

 

damn that sucks!

but damn you painted your G yourself?

looks sick

 

blaccG35- It is the hardest paint in the world to clean but when its clean it is amazing!

O HELLA OEM - I did all the sanding/prepping/ and I did the side moulding delete etc. It was guned at a shop.

 

so the wind messed up ur car?



im pretty sure that paint is a pain in the butt to take care off.

 

It's a wrap once you get a scratch cause you would have to repaint the whole section to get rid of it.

 

dammn wind!

 

SxSkyLinexS - yeah the wind pulled my door so hard it bent the hinges and pushed the door into the fender.

stclairwest -Wrap? yeah I do have to feather in the whole section now to make it all blend.

BloodlineG - Agreeeed!

 

haha, can this happen to any car or just urs because of ur paint.

im going to stop parking on the side and checking my car, etc. when rock hits it or something. ll just have to keep till i get home haa
