The only down side to this fun time....an IDIOTcab driver slammed into Lex Kat on the freeway in Vegas, while we were stopped dead in rush hour traffic! Smacked us pretty dang hard as he was accelerating coming up behind us! Both Dave & I could see him coming in our mirrors and nothing we could do! IDIOT!
Had to wait IN THE CENTER DIVIDER/BeRM with the 2 vehicles half way blocking the #1 lane, until the special Taxi Cab unit of the police dept, the regular police, and the Taxi company's insurance adjustor arrived. Then the police blocked all 5 lanes and escorted us across to the other berm where it was safer.
I got a bit twisted up from the impact and was fairly sore in my back and my right arm. Had my seat belt on thankfully cuz he really popped us hard.
The good news, the cabby got cited by the police and got fired from his job due to the severity of the judgement error and the citation. At least it was a taxi company with insurance.
No, it can't be something easy...no, it's a white pearl paint...I know from my last pearl car that got swiped (by another idiot) it's extremely hard to paint match it with the right amount of mica, hue, and light reflection....oh joy...this should be fun over the next few weeks...
Also, I think the rear quarter panel has a slight crease, right in front of the gas filler door. You can see the difference in the spacing where the fender and quarter panel meet...
paging Luna-X.....
p.s... Yes, I thought, hey, since we're driving 250 miles, why not throw the super bumper on the Lexus for the trip, hey, it can't hurt right?
T4B & JAMAS.....notice anything ironic in these pics....???
p.s.s...Hey Eric.., at least my Nittos are still balanced !! hehe
