New Z owner! + front bumper curbed pretty good tonight..

Glad to hear I'm not the only one who ran their z into a curb.

Went to a body shop today, skipped the dealer for now..they want to do a brand new front bumper cover as the car is essentially brand new. That, the lower spoiler, a windshield washer fluid reservoir and rim repair for the little bit of rash is roughly going to be $1300.

My deductible isn't astronomical like some folks I know, so I'll probably go that route. As soon as I said that, he said we could do brand new wheel ($921 list!) and a new Potenza

There's a little slit in the sidewall near the rim, but he said it's okay for daily drivig--but warned me to not drive "too fast" on it.

Really not so bad. I'm going to get another shot before the sun sets here in an hour..the bottom of the front bumper is dented nicely.
