Hello all,
I have a bit of unfortunate news regarding my 2006 Honda Accord. The other night on my way to work, I was driving on the freeway minding my own business. All of a sudden, a large pickup truck flew by me in the left lane, kicking up (or dropping) a large rock in its wake. The rock made an extremely loud noise when it collided with my car, but it was only after arriving at work in which I was able to fully assess the damage left by the rock. It appears that the rock directly hit the left fender of my car, leaving a considerable dent. I also observed a smaller dent in my hood, and a chip in my windshield.
At this point, I am trying to decide what to do with the damage. I'm the type of person who likes to keep my vehicles in tip-top condition, so I would like to repair the damage. At the same time, I recognize that this is nearly a 14 year old car (which gets driven over 100 miles per day on the freeway). For this reason, maybe i'm better off leaving it alone.
Any advice on what I should do about the damage? Unfortunately, since this photo was taken, the ident in my fender is beginning to rust considerably. At the very least, I will have to do something about that.
