Fender damage to my Evo IX
I'm having a really bad Monday morning.
On Sunday the clip in my transmission popped off, can't shift or start the car, so the car needed to be towed to my local shop.
This morning as I was pushing the car out of the driveway, it scraped the side of my garage door frame. The fender is partially torn, and the bumper has some scrapes and is sagging. Here are the pics:



The tow driver was quite patient as he watched me cursing/screaming while I was repeatedly kicking the garage door frame in disgust.
What do you guys think? Definitely need a new fender, hopefully the bumper can be repaired, not sure though.
Ugh, I wish I could take tequila shots a work.

sorry man, that stinks! im sure they can repair the bumper, and you might be able to find a used fender... If the fender is aluminum they may be able to repair it - it wont rust if they weld a patch onto it.
I'd search the for sale section for a wicked white fender...it'd be the cheapest most painless option
bumper looks repairable...it's going to need some buffing and touch up paint or fresh paint all together

Thanks for the replies.
Although very unlikely, I'm hoping the fender can be repaired, we'll see what my body shop guy says. If not, I'll keep a lookout for a WW passenger fender in the FS section.
