Had a good morning poop earlier. I feel good today already. Reps will be out shortly.

Leingod 08-30-2017 07:22 AM

I actually just got an awesome email from my old boss who works for the county now. He said they have 2 tech positions and 2 network admin positions open currently. He wanted my resume asap. Civil service exams are provisional so I could technically get in immediately and take the test next year.

God that would be amazing...

Government holidays. No more 3am phone calls. Amazing benefits. Actual yearly raises and great chances of promotions. Far less work and stress. And I'd get to work with an actual freaking team instead of handling everything myself!!

I'm about to start talking to my air compressor

Leingod 08-30-2017 05:04 PM

Girlfriend backed into the rear bumper. How much do you think it'll cost to have it repainted? I doubt I'll go through insurance.

I'd probably have them just redo the whole bumper. That was my guess as well. Around $500. Not a big amount. Only thing that sucks is I had the rear xpelled.

Grab the porter cable and see how much cleans up. Looks like the chip and a couple of scratches wont come out though.

nope. i'll clean it up this weekend and see. Looks like 2 deep chips and 3-4 deep scratches. Nail hangs on most of them. The white streaks will buff out easily. Idk if a shop can paint fill them though or if it would require a complete respray. $600 won't bother me much if it requires a whole respray. Bumper could use it anyways. If they find micro fractures tho, I may just purchase a knockoff amuse for painting.

I doubt the bumper is trashed. Respray and call it a day.

Leingod 08-30-2017 07:21 PM

Yea. Im not bothered or worried at all. The only thing that slightly scares me is having whatever shop I choose do a proper job so the paint matches identically. Grey metallic Pearl is probably not the easiest to match.

Any bodyshop should be able to match it fine, unless you are going to a friend of a friend that is wanting to start a bodyshop but has only pulled out one dent in a 1992 Tercel. I wouldnt worry about that too much.

Leingod 08-30-2017 07:39 PM

Nah. I only do that with the Ford focus. Haha. The Z gets proper treatment. Like doing the springs in a guys garage I met here while netiher of us had ever done it before.

DeliriousClam 08-30-2017 07:51 PM

that damage doesn't look that bad. Find a shop that knows how to blend and I'd say maybe $400 max

madwi 08-31-2017 06:54 AM

Finally home and in the lazyboy chair. Life is good.

Happy Travel Day.

Leingod 08-31-2017 07:30 AM

Called the best shop in my area. He said it would be best just to respray the whole bumper. Blending would look good for a few months, but you'd start to see the blended areas over time.

So it's looking like a full respray of the rear. Not that I mind. Can get rid of some rock chips as well. hahaha.
