Took the damaged TCH to the local body shop today, leaving yellow sticky notes with explicit instrucitions on how to properly start & shut down the hybrid powerplant.

4 hours later the manager called & said that they were done with the dent & that it looked as good as new!

I went to pick it up & was pleasantly suprised to find a perfect repair with no evidence of the big ugly dent that was present only a few hours earlier!!! The paint was not damaged & there were no kinks in the plastic. They did indeed carefully heat the area and the plastic bumper went back into place with a bit of elbow grease.

Price for the 3 hour job: $105 including tax.... I told him I would come to him for all my future body work.



I tried to attach some .jpg 's but it wouldn't recognize the file extension..

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the
intention of arriving safely in one pretty
and well-preserved piece. The intention
should be to skid in broadside, thoroughly
used up, worn out and defiantly shouting,
"Wow! What a ride"
