My garage door fell on my evo

Bummer on the car dude...at least the landlord is paying.
Blame your girlfriend, make her feel bad so she has to make thing up to you.
Have the landlord pay for the repair and have your girlfriend buy the MR vortex generator as a payback.

Needless to say, I was upset, since my landlord had promised a new garage door since the old door was corroded and due for a replacement. He claims that the track had never had a problem, but I suspect that as the door corroded, it started to sag and that probably increased the tension on the track. Anyway, 11 months into our lease, the garage door falls. Damage to the car is fairly superficial- some scratches on the left rear corner of the roof, and a dent at the base of the antenna. Good thing I don't have an MR. After some talking, he's picking up the tab for the repair- $457. I was upset with him, but I know that it isn't completely his fault and he's doing the right thing. Anyway, you guys probably want pics:
