So I'm parked at the FedEx facility to pick up some docs to review for a family friend who is, sadly, paralyzed from the neck down.

While inside, this lady backs into Ruby while leaving the parking lot.

Yes, I'm pissed. Her insurance is Geico. Hope they're okay to deal with.

I'd just spent the last two weekends claying, waxing, and otherwise detailing her. :doh:

That sucks. I had to deal with Gieco a few years ago when someone hit me. It was a pretty painless process for me.

Ruby red is EXPENSIVE to fix. 4-stage paint process. GEICO is gonna hate this bill. LOL!!

I would really do my homework on a REPUTABLE paint and body shop to fix that color.

Cue the backyard Krylon painters that beg to differ......LOL

Wow man, so sorry to hear about this but luckily, car's are fix-able!

Luckily, Geico is pretty easy to deal with. I use them personally and have had no issues, and I went through the process with them when my girlfriend was hit by a Geico insured driver with no issues.

Get your baby fixed up and maybe while she's getting fixed, you cna have a few new mods ready to go :cheers:

Sorry to see this. I would probably have a heart attack.

As to Geico, I use them as my personal insurance and they are top notch as stated earlier.
Warren Buffet owns Geico so you'll be okay.

Thanks guys. And I'm glad to hear Geico is top notch. I've already got a good body shop lined up.

ugh I cringe anytime a car needs body work. I have yet to see a body shop that can send a finished car out the door without fisheye somewhere on what they painted. GL, youll need it.

I scratched my front fender on my Shelby down to the bare metal. I use a reputable shop that can match the factory orange peel. I wanted the paint to match the rest of Fords shit paint.

Yeah. I went by a good body shop close to the house to have it looked at. We're pretty sure it's just cosmetic. The lady was backing up, so she couldn't have been going very fast.
