sometimes an accident can be a blessing. my old Lumina had a quality GM paint job - it was oxidized so bad that the car was more white than red. i didn't even bother to wash it because i would just take more paint off. anyways, some yahoo in a Snap-On Tools van with Arkansas plates blindly cut across 4 lanes of road to cut me off. i slammed into him, messed up the front end, but no "mechanical" damage - all plastic bits. so i got new headlights to replace my cracked ones, new paint job on the front, and a badly needed AC recharge. i even got my deductable back when my insurance company sued his. if only my car would have rolled so the roof and trunk could have been repainted, too.
