Well when unfortunate things happen brilliant plans can come out of them.

Unfortunately I was involved in a slight fender bender. I got stuck between a ford windstar and a Plymouth Breeze. after being hit from behind and sent into the mini van. Good news Everybody in all cars are OK! just slightly scared. The intersection is known for its accidents and needs a light.

Damage:
-Front and rear bumpers are all scuffed up
-Grill is all torn up
-hood latch bent
-Driver side headlight is bent out of shape

Pics

The Plan: I recently I had my car estimated for a rust repair as well as a some paint work. basically everything aside from the rust that was hit was part of the estimate. So now that thats covered by insurance I have only to spend on the rust repair....
