Default heh, guess what

dad was driving the car today and in a masterfully executed parking maneuver, dented the front wing where the wheel arch is and lots of scuffing on the bumper.
Bumper scratches or scuffing "should" buff out, but looks like it has to be raped some more by the body shop, and it still hasnt gone in to the dealership to have their return issues fixed and it still hasnt gone back to the body shop for the "second" time return issues for a dent they put on the bonnet when fixing stuff they did wrong from when the car was brought in from being hit by someone else.
He also managed to scuff the front left wheel I just had repaired.
I think this car may be sold within the year

Default Oh, also, how much would a dent in the front right wheel arch cost to repair?

not too big, but its pushed in at the flare part of the arch at the front.

Default Who's car has it worse? Yourk's or Doc's?

one's gets stolen and wrecked by the brother, water-locked, the other seems to have incessant body damage problems caused by others.
