Wednesday morning while leaving Target with hurricane supplies to evacuate, I got hit in the drivers side. It was not a good day.

The good news is the estimate is 1000.00 and my deductable is 100.00. Bad news, all the parts need to be ordered. Even the wheel cover. :|

edit: changed the stretchy pic to a link. SookiE, you can resize the pic to 640x480 or smaller and re-upload it

Sorry about that. :-o

Is there any sheet metal damage other than what I have circled? Looking at the original (huge) photo, there doesn't seem to be any serious bends in the metal...just some paint transfer/markings.

Yes, that is about the only serious metal damage. The composite panels just popped off at impact. There is some deep scratches along the bottom of the door, just above where the panel should be. The drivers door opens just enough for you to get in and out. However, the entire bumper of the Volvo came off that hit me. And the lady wasn't an insured driver on the policy. :roll:

I have a set of new wheel covers if you're interested.
