pics coming tomorrow...PIC ADDED..

I went to the car and found that someone,no telling who,backed into the Sport and crushed a hole in the header panel.The bumper ,fenders,and hood and lights are good,but the header is waster.I have to start searching for an affordable replacement.I have had a wicked headache ever since I found it at lunch today.I'm glad it didn't damage the hood and surrounding parts.It could've been worse I suppose.It was just a hard enough hit to push in the fiberglass beyond repair.

I can get you one in STL but with shipping it wouldnt be cost effective. If it was mine you could have it after how much you have helped me and others.

Maybe it was better for him to run. LOL. Seriously though that is a shiznitty thing to do. Carma is a bitch.

Vinnie, It's a shame that other people see our cars as just nothing but normal ones. Plus have no respect for the way we keep our rides great looking. This person had to have know they hit your Sport and was too chicken a$$ to let you know. :beatyoass:
