my baby....
Apr. 4th, 2011 08:22 pmSaturday, I put a newer alternator in my car. Sunday, I bought and installed a new battery. today....
I was on my way home, coming through an intersection two blocks away, southbound through a green light in #1 of 2. just as I reached the crosswalk, someone made a left turn across me, from the eastbound right lane. I slammed on the brakes and steered right, but unfortunately she also braked (WTF?) and I couldn't clear her without hitting the curb and probably the lightpost on the far corner, so I took her bumper cover off. in exchange, her bumper went through my left headlight and out through the fender.
so now I need a new fender. again. and a new headlight. and a new headlight bucket. and a new corner marker. and somehow the hood and bumper are untouched.
