NEMOC Random BS Thread

You doubt that the weather will stay like until April or that Bruce will come out of hibernation to visit? haha

You bet on the bumper! I forgot all about it as I thought you had shipped it down. The guy buying it was from Lancaster, right?

ya, on bruce! the buyer said he'd me you in lehigh valley somewhere convenient to you
 
I figured and :( Ok on the bumper. Once I get back I can make arrangements with him to meet up.
 
so my car was backed into, again! haha

second time in the same driveway, but different driver this time.

by the looks of it at night, i need a new drivers side rear door, new quarter panel welded in and then ill need to have the front door cleaned up a little bit. not mad at all, things happen. :) guy who did it (girlfriends brother) is all upset about it and its happened a few times to other cars in their driveway. he says to his mom "so what are we going to do so this doesn't happen again?"
um, look before you back the car up perhaps??? haha

pics to come tomorrow!
 
so what ill end up doing is I'm probably going to find a door this week and we can make the meet a "replace kyle's door meet!"

going to do the repair more or less on my own with their money so their insurance rates don't go up. got a friend of a friend who does amazing body work so he will fix all the non door parts. the tricky part for him i think will be fixing the quarter panel

i like how you can see the shape of his bumper in the panel. new car next year i think, this one is bad luck. people are so envious of it that they just need to back into it
 
Moring all. Back to work.
mornin bruce...back to work here too! i just realized driving into work at 5:45am, that i really can't enjoyed the ride, i was trying to listen to a radio program and was constantly reminded that if i got to in grossed in the program i'd probably get killed! car's were flying up behind me, jamming their brakes on, going around me, cutting me off...and then just the awful roads too boot! mind you now, i'm going 10 over the posted speed limit, it's dark and the roads go from 4 to 3 lanes, the stupid break down lane is open during commuter hours...it is just crazy...and that's at 5:45 in the morning....whats the rush people...? we're going to work! my rant for the day! :)

That sux Kyle!!!! Hope it can be fixed on the cheap side but not so sure. I was pricing that same panel last month when trying to figure out the best, cost efficient way to hit mine that was hit and rusted out. Jason at OMP said he could get me the panel to my door for $540 but that doesn't include labor to cut out the old one and weld it in + paint.

Wow, sounds like my commute in at 7am! It has been so crazy here that I've been taking back roads lately. It takes me a little longer but I find it more relaxing and I don't get to work agitated by some idiot(s) on the road.
 
My commute was horrible. Stubbed my toe on the bed post, line of traffic in the hallway, spilled coffee on a bump in the carpet, sideswiped a chair...yup...a great start to the day.

Ouch. :( Sad sight to see. That rear quarter is going to be a tough fix for sure. A shop will most likely pull most of it out and bondo for fill.
 
I'd take that commute anyday! :p

Why the back-up in the hallway though....most of been near the bathroom door?

Hallway traffic? You've got no idea. I've got 4 furry speedbumps to negotiate...sometimes on the treacherous stairs. Then I have to deal with the K-9 roadblock at the kitchen door. Sometimes I take the back route through the dining room but that just draws attention.
 
Speaking of K9s, My sister-in-law sent this to us from Japan. Apparently over there, it's completely normal to dress your pets.

 
hellllooooo

well i think we are going to have to call the insurance for it. I cant find any laser blue doors locally and im not going to put in tons of effort into finding one since im not at fault here. thought about getting any old door and painting it but i forgot about the inner part needing to be blue too :P.

Im wondering now if its worth me driving myself to the cleaning meet or just having jeff pick me up and pay for some of the gas!
 
Morning folks. How is everyone?

Got my BBS wheels mounted on the BMW yesterday. Here's a pic...

Yeah, I had to find another assembly. Got one from a guy in Wisconsin. Slapped it all together pretty quickly. Now... gotta do the rear springs next.
