Welp, there goes the "newness". Got a nice 1.5" rock gash yesterday on the hood.

I'm really bummed out. Damn gravel trucks. Time to go to the dealer to find out how much it would be to fix it up.

Default F-ng Vegas.

When I lived down there I actually followed one of those Rinker ****** all the way back to his depot to scream at him because I was boxed in behind him in traffic and he was throwing gravel all over the damn road. The truck hadn't been rinsed off, so some of it was dropping off the undercarriage, and it was overloaded on top with no cover so it was coming out of the bed too.

Back here in Seattle they are so much better about policing that stuff. I never saw so much crap on the freeway as I did in Vegas.

Do you think a little touch up paint will work to fix or will I have to go to a body shop?

I'd do the body shop and then have a clear bra installed too.

Default 2nd

You could try touch up paint and Langka, but you probably won't be happy with the results unless you get it done professionally.
