Zaino isn't so tough

I always thought Zaino was pretty bulletproof. It has stopped rain, salt, bird crap and even the occaisional lawn sprinkler. However, I found out it was unable to stop a trailer hitch receiver...:D





p.s. This is the first picture I've posted, let's hope it works...

Ah, but how many coats did you apply? ;)



The damage looks pretty bad though. Hope it's not too pricey to fix!
 
It's the front end to my Grand Prix GT. Here's what the whole front end looks like. Notice the residue from the duct tape used to ensure closure of the hood. Also, I drove in some wet snow anddidn't get a chance to wash the car. So, no cracks about it's lack of cleanliness!:D
 
I suppose I should actually post the rest of the story. I rear-ended my father in law on Sunday. The car in front of him slammed on the brakes for a light, he slammed his and I was a tad slow in reacting. I hit the rear of his 97 Jeep Cherokee at about 10 mph. The airbags didn't deploy, but I need about $2,600 worth of work done.



The damage to his Jeep? Nothing...zero...nada...zilch...



His receiver hitch took all the impact and his bumper is high enough to have me slide under his. I don't think I even scratched the paint on the damn hitch.



The good thing is nobody was hurt and I was able to drive the car home.
 
You rear-ended your father in law? Why on earth did you pick him???













:D





Seriously - sorry for your misfortune. I'm not sure which hurts more - getting your beautifully polished and waxed car hit by some jacka$$ through no fault of your own, or being the jacka$$ and screwing it up all by yourself. Either way it is hard to take. Sounds like you have the right attitude though.
